7 LHC
The Lafayette, La. company, a first timer on our list, provides hospice and recovery-at-home care, mostly Medicare patients in rural areas of the South.While the elderly population in the U.S. is growing--there are now 38 million people over age 65--LHC has to deal with reimbursement cuts from the feds. Tough on company that has expanded, in part, by acquiring competitors on the cheap (it has picked up five companies so far this year). And tough for shareholders used to 65%-a-year growth in profits.
