I just added this stock to my real portfolio. LHC Group. provides provide post-acute healthcare services primarily to Medicare beneficiaries in rural markets in the southern United States. It offers various home-based services, as well.
A few things I like about this company. One is that demograhics are turning in their favor. As our population lives longer more and more care for the elderly will be necessary. The second part I like about this company is that it's growth strategy is based on buying smaller companies at a discount. It's debt to equity ratio is a low .041.
