Mark Tarr, president and CEO of Encompass Health, has continued to report on the company's growth and performance in his quarterly video updates to employees. In the second quarter of 2026, he cited strong discharge growth and the opening of two new hospitals, including a wholly owned facility in Glen Mills, Pennsylvania, and a joint venture with Piedmont in Loganville, Georgia. He also highlighted the company's efforts to support veterans, including sponsoring the National Veterans Golden Age Games and creating career opportunities for veterans, in a conversation with EVP and COO Pat Tuer and veteran employee Colby Williams. In the first quarter of 2026, Tarr reported continued discharge growth, the opening of a 49-bed hospital in Irmo, South Carolina, and plans for small-format hospitals to create a hub-and-spoke model in key markets, alongside national recognitions from Forbes, Fortune, and Becker's. In earlier updates, Tarr has consistently emphasized expansion and quality outcomes. For the fourth quarter of 2025, he reported 5.3% discharge growth for the quarter and 6% year-over-year, the opening of three new hospitals, and a total of eight new hospitals for the year, adding 537 beds. He also discussed a nursing clinical ladder program with Vice President of Nursing Operations Liz Squires, noting over 1,000 nurse applications and lower turnover among participants. In the third quarter of 2025, Tarr delivered his update from Encompass Health's Hospital of the Year in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and discussed the opening of two Florida hospitals and the company's first in Connecticut. He has also addressed operational challenges, such as in the third quarter of 2024, when he described the impact of Hurricanes Helene and Milton, including evacuations of two Florida hospitals, and in the fourth quarter of 2024, when he discussed advocacy efforts in Washington, D.C., expressing uncertainty about the federal government's future role under the new administration.
