S N F Properties Inc company history timeline

1935

In 1935 the Federal Government (for the first time) got involved.

1950

By the 1950’s, unable to operate without federal annuities for the inmates, the intent of policymakers to destroy the hated almshouse had succeeded.

The 1950 legislation also required that participating states establish programs for licensing nursing homes, but it did not specify what the standards or enforcement procedures should be.

1954

In 1954 Congress passed NEW laws that allowed for the development of public institutions for the most needy older adults.

In 1954 the Hill-Burton Act provided Federal grants for nursing homes built in conjunction with hospitals which, unfortunately, resulted in nursing homes modeled after hospitals.

By the time of the first national survey of nursing homes in 1954, there were 9,000 homes classified as skilled nursing or personal care homes with skilled nursing facilities; 86 percent were proprietary, 10 percent were voluntary, and 4 percent were public.3

In 1954 the Hill-Burton Act was amended to provide funds to nonprofit organizations for the construction of skilled nursing facilities that met certain definitions and hospital-like building standards.

1955

A Bill of Objectives for Older People and a Program for Action in the Field of Aging, by the Council of State Governments, August 1955.

1957

As a result of concerns about the quality of care and safety of conditions in nursing homes, the chronic disease program of the Public Health Service began to study state licensing programs in 1957.

1959

A special Senate Subcommittee on Problems of the Aged and Aging was established in 1959.

1960

The one thread connecting the company from its past to its existence in the 21st century was its classification as a real estate investment trust, or REIT. The birth of EastGroup followed not long after REITs were encouraged to be formed by the Real Estate Investment Trust Act of 1960.

1963

The program began to work with the states and the industry to develop federal -guidelines for nursing home licensure programs.17 The final product, the Nursing Home Standards Guide, was issued in 1963.

1965

The passage of Medicare and Medicaid in 1965 provided significant impetus to the private-industry growth of nursing homes.

The Moss Committee hearings in 1965 documented great variations in state nursing home standards and enforcement efforts on the eve of the Medicare and Medicaid programs.

1967

Amendments made in 1967 to the Medicaid program included those sponsored by Senator Moss authorizing HEW to develop standards and regulations to be applied uniformly by the states.

1969

1969: Incorporated as Third ICM Realty, EastGroup Properties is formed.

HEW withdrew proposed ICF regulations in 1969 when states protested.

1971

In June 1971, with the White House Conference on Aging pending, President Nixon made a major speech deploring conditions in nursing homes and pledging to end federal payments to substandard facilities.

The bottom fell out in 1971 because of the usual suspects—greed, fraud, insider trading—and a new culprit: regulation of the industry.

1972

In 1972, the Federal Government enacted specific requirements for nursing homes supported by Medicare and Medicaid.

During 1972 Congress passed the remnants of Nixon's comprehensive welfare reform bill, which still contained many changes in the social security, Medicare, and Medicaid programs.

Work began in earnest to develop the regulations for SNFs and ICFs in 1972.

1974

The reaction from consumer groups, state regulators, the Congress, and providers was so strong that Secretary of Health and Human Services Richard Schweiker announced that the draft regulations would be dropped, leaving the 1974 rules in effect.

1976

The ONHA, now called the Office of Long-Term Care, was overseeing a substantial revision of the SNF standards by an interagency work group as early as 1976.

1980

The HCFA also concluded that revisions of the certification procedures contained in Subpart S of the regulations were necessary (42 CFR Part 405), and began work on them in 1980 (internal HCFA documents).

1983

In 1983, Speed was joined by David H. Hoster II, who received a B.A. in history from Princeton University and an M.B.A. from Stanford University.

1983: Concurrent with a name change to EastGroup Properties, the company hires the two senior executives who will lead it into the 21st century.

1985

Formed in 1985, Copley owned and operated 15 properties with more than 2.5 million square feet of leasable space, possessing more than $80 million in assets.

Genesis Health Ventures was established in 1985 with nine Centers and a management team that believed nursing homes should be proactive centers of health care, rather than centers focused solely on custodial care for the elderly.

Currently (1985), the new instrument is being tested extensively in three states and every state is experimenting with it in a few facilities.

1987

About this same time, The Nursing Home Reform Act of 1987 began kicking in.

1990

In 1990, 13% of such funding was for home and community-based services.

1992

The company's revenue volume edged passed $13 million in 1992, beginning a measured march upwards.

1997

By this point, Hoster had assumed day-to-day control over the company, becoming EastGroup's chief executive officer in September 1997.

1999

By the end of 1999, the company was a $74-million-in-revenues REIT, having increased its revenue volume nearly fivefold in five years.

In 1999, the Federal government made drastic, unanticipated cuts to Medicare, which at that time funded virtually all the care for individuals admitted to Genesis Centers from hospitals.

2000

Revenues reached nearly $98 million in 2000 before eclipsing a financial milestone the following year, when the company's sales volume totaled $105 million.

By 2000, nursing homes had become a 100 billion dollar industry, paid largely by Medicaid, Medicare, and resident out-of-pocket resources.

By 2000, segmentation of the market had begun, with an increasing share of post-acute patients being treated in stand-alone facilities specializing in rehabilitative care.

Genesis Health Ventures fought to stay solvent, but was forced to seek Chapter 11 protection in 2000.

2001

In 2001, the company reorganized and reemerged as a stronger entity, retaining its focus on delivering high quality health care.

2002

In 2002, EastGroup's revenues only increased by roughly $650,000.

2003

When the economic climate improved, however, Hoster quickly seized the opportunities available to him, ushering EastGroup into a period of expansion first demonstrated in 2003.

2003: Nearly $20 million is spent on acquiring real estate properties.

Genesis HealthCare was created in 2003 as a result of a spin-off from Genesis Health Ventures.

2004

Among the purchases made during 2004 was the acquisition in April of the Kirby Business Center in Houston.

2007

In 2007, private equity investors Formation Capital and JER Partners assumed ownership of Genesis HealthCare, taking the Company private.

2010

Yet, in 2010, Medicaid alone forked over $130 billion (31% of total Medicaid spending) for long-term care.

2011

In 2011, Health Care REIT, Inc. (HCN), a health care real estate investment trust, acquired substantially all of Genesis' real estate assets.

2015

Genesis HealthCare announced that effective February 2, 2015, it completed its previously announced combination with Skilled Healthcare Group, Inc.
