The reaffirmation of full-year EBITDA guidance suggests these pressures are contained and offset by pricing power.

- In context
The company is shifting risk to partners via a hospital-affiliation model where clinical staff costs are fully reimbursed, alongside achieving its best-ever net rate per visit of $107.59. These structural gains are currently offset by a margin dip to 19.9% due to $3.2 million in elevated employee healthcare claims.
