VENCOR, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 -- REPORTING ENTITY

Vencor, Inc. ("Vencor") operates an integrated network of healthcare
services primarily focused on the needs of the elderly. At September 30, 1995,
Vencor operated 35 hospitals, 311 nursing centers, a contract services business
("Vencare") which provides respiratory therapy and subacute services primarily
to nursing centers, 56 retail and institutional pharmacy outlets and 23
retirement communities with 3,122 apartments.

On September 28, 1995, Vencor consummated a merger with The Hillhaven
Corporation ("Hillhaven") in a tax-free, stock-for-stock transaction (the
"Hillhaven Merger"). See Note 4.

Prior to its merger with Vencor, Hillhaven consummated a merger with
Nationwide Care, Inc. ("Nationwide") on June 30, 1995 in a tax-free,
stock-for-stock transaction (the "Nationwide Merger"). See Note 5.

NOTE 2 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Hillhaven and Nationwide Mergers have been accounted for by the
pooling-of-interests method. Accordingly, the accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect to these transactions
and include the combined operations of Vencor, Hillhaven and Nationwide for all
periods presented. In addition, the historical financial information of
Hillhaven and Nationwide (previously reported on fiscal years ending May 31 and
September 30, respectively) have been recast to conform to Vencor's annual
reporting period ending December 31.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include
all of the disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting
principles or those normally required in annual reports on Form 10-K.
Accordingly, the reader of these financial statements may wish to refer to the
audited consolidated financial statements of Vencor (Form 10-K/A for the year
ended December 31, 1994) and Hillhaven (Form 8-K dated September 1, 1995 for the
year ended May 31, 1995) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with Vencor's customary accounting practices and have not
been audited. Management believes that the financial information included herein
reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of interim results
and, except as discussed in Note 6, all such adjustments are of a normal and
recurring nature.

NOTE 3 -- EARNINGS PER SHARE

The computation of earnings per common and common equivalent share give
retroactive effect to the Hillhaven and Nationwide Mergers and is based upon the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding. In addition, the 1994
computations also included the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents
(consisting primarily of stock options) and convertible debt securities.

In connection with the Hillhaven Merger, Vencor realized a gain of
approximately $10.2 million upon the cash redemption of Hillhaven preferred
stock. Although the gain had no effect on net income, 1995 third quarter and
nine-month net loss per share was reduced by $.17.

NOTE 4 -- HILLHAVEN MERGER

On September 27, 1995, the stockholders of both Vencor and Hillhaven
approved the Hillhaven Merger, effective September 28, 1995. In accordance with
the merger agreement, each outstanding share of Hillhaven common stock was
converted on a tax-free basis into 0.935 of a share of Vencor common stock. All
outstanding shares of Hillhaven preferred stock were redeemed in exchange for
cash aggregating $91.3 million plus accrued dividends.

The Hillhaven Merger has been accounted for as a pooling of interests and,
accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements give retroactive
effect to the combined operations of Vencor and Hillhaven

Prior to its merger with Vencor, Hillhaven completed the Nationwide Merger
on June 30, 1995. In connection therewith, 4,675,000 shares of common stock
(effected for the Hillhaven Merger exchange ratio) were issued on a tax-free
basis in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of Nationwide.

The Nationwide Merger has been accounted for as a pooling of interests and,
accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements give retroactive

NOTE 6 -- NONRECURRING TRANSACTIONS

In the third quarter of 1995, Vencor recorded pretax charges aggregating
$128.4 million primarily in connection with the Hillhaven Merger. The charges
included (i) $23.2 million of investment advisory and professional fees, (ii)
$53.8 million of employee benefit plan and severance costs, (iii) $26.9 million
of losses associated with the planned disposition of certain nursing center
properties and (iv) $24.5 million of losses to reflect Vencor's change in
estimates of accrued revenues recorded in connection with certain prior-year
nursing center third-party reimbursement issues (recorded as a reduction of
revenues).

Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 include
pretax charges of $5.5 million recorded in the second quarter related to the
Nationwide Merger.

In February 1994, Vencor recorded a pretax charge of $2.5 million in
connection with the prior disposition of certain nursing centers.

NOTE 7 -- LONG-TERM DEBT

Concurrent with the consummation of the Hillhaven Merger, Vencor entered
into a five and one-half year $1 billion senior credit facility (the "Credit
Facility") comprised of a $400 million term loan and a $600 million revolving
credit facility. The Credit Facility was established to finance the redemption
of Hillhaven preferred stock, repay certain higher rate debt and borrowings
under prior revolving credit agreements discussed below, and provide sufficient
credit for future expansion. Interest is payable at rates up to either (i) the
prime rate plus 1/4% or daily federal funds rate plus 3/4%, (ii) LIBOR plus
1 1/4% or (iii) the bank certificate of deposit rate plus 1 3/8%. Outstanding
borrowings under the $400 million term loan are payable in various installments
beginning in 1997 through 2001. The Credit Facility contains customary covenants
which include limitations on additional debt and repurchases of common stock,
and maintenance of certain financial ratios. Outstanding borrowings under the
Credit Facility aggregated $557.8 million at September 30, 1995.

During the third quarter of 1995, Vencor refinanced $344.2 million of
Hillhaven higher rate debt and repaid $112.5 million of outstanding borrowings
under prior revolving credit agreements. After-tax losses associated with these
activities totaled $19.2 million or $.32 per share. Vencor incurred an
additional after-tax

(UNAUDITED)

loss of $2.7 million in the second quarter of 1995 primarily in connection with
the refinancing of certain Nationwide long-term debt.

NOTE 8 -- CONTINGENCIES

In January 1995, Horizon Healthcare Corporation ("Horizon") proposed a
transaction in which holders of Hillhaven common stock would receive common
stock of Horizon valued by Horizon at $28. Horizon also had entered into an
agreement with Tenet Healthcare Corporation ("Tenet"), a Hillhaven stockholder,
pursuant to which Tenet indicated that it was supportive of Horizon's proposal.
A formal proposal was presented by Horizon to Hillhaven and was rejected by a
special committee (the "Special Committee") of the Hillhaven Board of Directors
for, among other reasons, the belief that the arrangements between Horizon and
Tenet had caused Horizon to become the "beneficial owner" of Tenet's Hillhaven
common stock. Because Nevada law prohibits a merger for three years between
Hillhaven and any person acquiring beneficial ownership or more than 10% of
Hillhaven common stock without prior Hillhaven approval, the Horizon proposal
could not be consummated. The Special Committee authorized Hillhaven to commence
litigation seeking a determination that Horizon could not effect a merger with
Hillhaven in compliance with Nevada law.

On February 6, 1995, Hillhaven filed a complaint against Horizon in the
United States District Court for the District of Nevada seeking injunctive and
declaratory relief that a business combination between Horizon and Hillhaven is
prohibited by the Nevada statute regarding business combinations with interested
stockholders (NRS Sections 78.411 through 78.444) by reason of Horizon's
arrangements with Tenet. On February 27, 1995, Horizon filed an answer and a
counterclaim alleging that, among other things, Hillhaven and all of its
directors (other than Messrs. de Wetter and Andersons) had breached their
fiduciary duties to Hillhaven's stockholders in connection with their
consideration of Horizon's acquisition proposal and certain actions recently
taken by Hillhaven, including the formation of a grantor trust and the amendment
of Hillhaven's rights plan. The counterclaim seeks injunctive and declaratory
relief and compensatory and punitive damages in unspecified amounts. The parties
to this action have stipulated to a dismissal; however, such dismissal has not
yet been entered by the Court.

Hillhaven and its directors are named as defendants in a number of putative
class action complaints filed on behalf of Hillhaven's stockholders in Nevada
state court (the "Nevada State Court Actions") and California state court (the
"California State Court Actions"). These complaints raise allegations that
Hillhaven's directors breached their fiduciary duties to Hillhaven's
stockholders in connection with the consideration of Horizon's acquisition
proposal and certain corporate actions also cited in Horizon's counterclaim.
These actions seek declaratory and injunctive relief and, in California,
compensatory damages in unspecified amounts. The plaintiffs in the Nevada State
Court Actions moved to dismiss their complaints, which dismissal was opposed by
Hillhaven and its directors. In addition, Tenet filed a complaint against
Hillhaven and two of its directors, Mr. Busby and Mr. Marker (the "Tenet
Actions"), in the state court of California seeking declaratory and injunctive
relief and alleging, among other things, that they breached their fiduciary
duties to Tenet and Hillhaven's other stockholders in connection with their
consideration of Horizon's acquisition proposal and certain other corporate
actions cited in the Horizon and putative class action complaints. The Service
Employees International Union (AFL-CIO) and Joann Sforza, a Hillhaven employee
and union member, are seeking to intervene as party plaintiffs in the Tenet
Action and in one of the putative class actions brought on behalf of Hillhaven's
stockholders, alleging that their interests as stockholders and employees of
Hillhaven are not adequately represented. Management has opposed this
intervention and believes these actions are without merit.

By stipulation of the parties, the proceedings in the Tenet Action have
been dismissed with prejudice. No schedule has been established with respect to
further proceedings in the Nevada State Court Actions and the California State
Court Actions.

NOTE 9 -- STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

On September 27, 1995, Vencor common stockholders voted to increase the
number of authorized shares of common stock from 60,000,000 to 180,000,000 and
increase the number of common shares issuable under certain employee benefit
plans from 3,162,562 to 6,900,000.

NOTE 10 -- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In October 1995, Vencor called for redemption its $115 million 6%
Convertible Subordinated Notes (the "6% Notes") and $75 million 7.75%
Convertible Debentures (the "7.75% Debentures") which were convertible into
Vencor common stock at the rate of $26.00 and $17.96 per share, respectively. In
November 1995, $80.6 million principal amount of the 6% Notes was converted into
approximately 3,098,000 shares of common stock and the remainder was redeemed in
exchange for cash equal to 104.2% of face value plus accrued interest. All
outstanding 7.75% Debentures were converted into approximately 4,161,000 shares
of common stock. These transactions will have no material effect on earnings per
common and common equivalent share.

On October 30, 1995, Vencor entered into certain interest rate swap
agreements to eliminate the impact of changes in interest rates on $400 million
of floating rate debt outstanding under the Credit Facility. The agreements
expire in April 1997 ($100 million), October 1997 ($200 million) and April 1998
($100 million) and provide for fixed rates at 5.7%.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

HILLHAVEN AND NATIONWIDE MERGERS

The Hillhaven Merger was consummated on September 28, 1995. At the time of
the Hillhaven Merger, Hillhaven operated 311 nursing centers, 56 retail and
institutional pharmacies and 23 retirement communities with 3,122 apartments.
Annualized revenues approximated $1.7 billion.

Prior to its merger with Vencor, Hillhaven completed the Nationwide Merger
on June 30, 1995. At the time of the Nationwide Merger, Nationwide operated 23
nursing centers containing 3,257 licensed beds and four retirement communities
with 442 apartments. Annualized revenues approximated $125 million.

As discussed in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,
the Hillhaven and Nationwide Mergers have been accounted for by the
pooling-of-interests method. Accordingly, the accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements and financial and operating data included
herein give retroactive effect to these transactions and include the combined
operations of Vencor, Hillhaven and Nationwide for all periods presented. In
addition, the historical financial information and operating data of Hillhaven
and Nationwide (previously reported on fiscal years ending May 31 and September
30, respectively) have been recast to conform to Vencor's annual reporting
period ending December 31.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Vencor operates an integrated network of healthcare services focused
primarily on the needs of the elderly through the operation of hospitals,
nursing centers and ancillary services businesses which include Vencare,
pharmacies and retirement communities. A summary of revenues follows (dollars in
thousands):

</TABLE>

Excluding the effect of nonrecurring transactions, revenues grew 16% and
15% for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1995,
respectively, compared to the same periods last year due primarily to growth in
hospital patient days, nursing center subacute and medical rehabilitation care
and Vencare contracts. Hospital patient days rose 27% to 124,475 in the third
quarter of 1995 and 21% to 362,326 for the nine-month period as a result of both
acquisitions and same-store growth. Nursing center patient days related to
subacute and medical rehabilitation care increased 16% to 419,499 in the third
quarter and 14% to 1,234,010 for the nine-month period. The number of Vencare
contracts at September 30, 1995 totaled 1,917 compared to 795 at September 30,
1994.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

In the third quarter of 1995, Vencor recorded pretax charges aggregating
$128.4 million ($89.9 million net of tax) primarily in connection with the
Hillhaven Merger. The charges included (i) $23.2 million of investment advisory
and professional fees, (ii) $53.8 million of employee benefit plan and severance
costs, (iii) $26.9 million of losses associated with the planned disposition of
certain nursing center properties and (iv) $24.5 million of losses to reflect
Vencor's change in estimates of accrued revenues recorded in connection with
certain prior-year nursing center third-party reimbursement issues. Operating
results for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 include pretax charges of
$5.5 million ($3.7 million net of tax) recorded in the second quarter related
primarily to the Nationwide Merger. In February 1994, Vencor recorded a pretax
charge of $2.5 million ($1.5 million net of tax) in connection with the prior
disposition of certain nursing centers.

For the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1995, losses from
operations totaled $62.9 million and $20.6 million, respectively, compared to
income of $20.5 million and $59.6 million for the respective periods in 1994.
Excluding the effect of nonrecurring transactions, third quarter income from
operations increased 32% to $27.0 million ($.38 per share - fully diluted) from
$20.5 million ($.31 per share), and 19% to $72.9 million ($1.04 per share) from
$61.1 million ($.92 per share) for the respective nine-month periods. The
improvement in both periods resulted primarily from revenue growth and operating
efficiencies associated with increased volume of services.

LIQUIDITY

Cash provided by operations totaled $114.6 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1995 compared to $103.1 million last year due primarily to
growth in income from operations before nonrecurring transactions. Cash payments
in September 1995 related to nonrecurring transactions reduced cash flows from
operations by approximately $20 million. In addition, certain nonrecurring
transaction costs for merger-related fees and employee benefits will reduce cash
flows from operations for the remainder of 1995 and 1996.

Concurrent with the consummation of the Hillhaven Merger, Vencor
established the Credit Facility to finance the redemption of Hillhaven preferred
stock, repay certain Hillhaven higher rate debt and borrowings under prior
revolving credit agreements and provide sufficient credit for future expansion.
At September 30, 1995, available borrowings under the Credit Facility
approximated $348 million.

Working capital totaled $232.5 million at September 30, 1995 compared to
$129.1 million at December 31, 1994. Management believes that cash flows from
operations and amounts available under the Credit Facility are sufficient to
meet future expected liquidity needs.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

Excluding acquisitions, capital expenditures totaled $102.3 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1995 compared to $82.4 million for the same
period of 1994. Planned capital expenditures in 1995 (excluding acquisitions)
are expected to approximate $150 million. Management believes that its capital
expenditure program is adequate to expand, improve and equip existing
facilities.

Vencor also expended $45.3 million and $28.2 million for acquisitions
during the respective nine-month periods of 1995 and 1994, of which $36.1
million and $24.2 million related to additional hospital facilities. Management
intends to acquire additional hospitals and nursing centers in the future.

Capital expenditures in both 1995 and 1994 were financed primarily through
internally generated funds and, in 1995, from the public offering of 2,200,000
shares of common stock, the proceeds from which aggregated $66.5 million. Vencor
intends to finance all capital expenditures with internally generated and
borrowed funds. Sources of capital include available borrowings under the Credit
Facility, public or private debt and equity.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)

As discussed in Note 10 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements, Vencor called for redemption all of its outstanding convertible debt
securities in October 1995, resulting in the issuance of approximately 7,259,000
shares of common stock. Approximately $34.4 million of the convertible
securities were redeemed in exchange for cash equal to 104.2% of face value plus
accrued interest. These transactions will not have a material effect on earnings
per common and common equivalent share. Had these transactions occurred on
September 30, 1995, the ratio of debt to debt plus stockholders' equity would
have improved from 61.2% to 51.0%.

As discussed in Note 10 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements, Vencor entered into certain interest rate swap agreements on October
30, 1995 to eliminate the impact of changes in interest rates on $400 million of
floating rate debt outstanding under the Credit Facility. The agreements expire
in April 1997 ($100 million), October 1997 ($200 million) and April 1998 ($100
million) and provide for fixed rates at 5.7%.

HEALTH CARE LEGISLATION

Congress is currently considering various proposals which would reduce
expenditures under certain government health and welfare programs, including
Medicare and Medicaid. Management cannot predict whether such proposals will be
adopted, or if adopted, what effect, if any, such proposals would have on its
business.

For the nine months ended September 30, 1995, Medicare and Medicaid
revenues as a percentage of Vencor's hospital revenues approximated 58% and 11%,
respectively, while revenues from such programs approximated 29% and 45%,
respectively, of Vencor's nursing center revenues.

OTHER INFORMATION

Various lawsuits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business are
pending against Vencor. As discussed in Note 8 of the Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements, Vencor is a party to certain litigation
involving the proposed acquisition of Hillhaven by Horizon in January 1995.
Resolution of such litigation and other loss contingencies is not expected to
have a material adverse effect on Vencor's financial position or results of
operations.

The Credit Facility contains customary covenants which include limitations
on additional debt and repurchases of common stock, and maintenance of certain
financial ratios. Vencor was in compliance with all such covenants at September
30, 1995.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In January 1995, Horizon Healthcare Corporation ("Horizon") proposed a
transaction in which holders of Hillhaven common stock would receive common
stock of Horizon valued by Horizon at $28. Horizon also had entered into an
agreement with Tenet Healthcare Corporation ("Tenet"), a Hillhaven stockholder,
pursuant to which Tenet indicated that it was supportive of Horizon's proposal.
A formal proposal was presented by Horizon to Hillhaven and was rejected by a
special committee (the "Special Committee") of the Hillhaven Board of Directors
for, among other reasons, the belief that the arrangements between Horizon and
Tenet had caused Horizon to become the "beneficial owner" of Tenet's Hillhaven
common stock. Because Nevada law prohibits a merger for three years between
Hillhaven and any person acquiring beneficial ownership or more than 10% of
Hillhaven common stock without prior Hillhaven approval, the Horizon proposal
could not be consummated. The Special Committee authorized Hillhaven to commence
litigation seeking a determination that Horizon could not effect a merger with
Hillhaven in compliance with Nevada law.

On February 6, 1995, Hillhaven filed a complaint against Horizon in the
United States District Court for the District of Nevada seeking injunctive and
declaratory relief that a business combination between Horizon and Hillhaven is
prohibited by the Nevada statute regarding business combinations with interested
stockholders (NRS Sections 78.411 through 78.444) by reason of Horizon's
arrangements with Tenet. On February 27, 1995, Horizon filed an answer and a
counterclaim alleging that, among other things, Hillhaven and all of its
directors (other than Messrs. de Wetter and Andersons) had breached their
fiduciary duties to Hillhaven's stockholders in connection with their
consideration of Horizon's acquisition proposal and certain actions recently
taken by Hillhaven, including the formation of a grantor trust and the amendment
of Hillhaven's rights plan. The counterclaim seeks injunctive and declaratory
relief and compensatory and punitive damages in unspecified amounts. The parties
to this action have stipulated to a dismissal; however, such dismissal has not
yet been entered by the Court.

Hillhaven and its directors are named as defendants in a number of putative
class action complaints filed on behalf of Hillhaven's stockholders in Nevada
state court (the "Nevada State Court Actions") and California state court (the
"California State Court Actions"). These complaints raise allegations that
Hillhaven's directors breached their fiduciary duties to Hillhaven's
stockholders in connection with the consideration of Horizon's acquisition
proposal and certain corporate actions also cited in Horizon's counterclaim.
These actions seek declaratory and injunctive relief and, in California,
compensatory damages in unspecified amounts. The plaintiffs in the Nevada State
Court Actions moved to dismiss their complaints, which dismissal was opposed by
Hillhaven and its directors. In addition, Tenet filed a complaint against
Hillhaven and two of its directors, Mr. Busby and Mr. Marker (the "Tenet
Actions"), in the state court of California seeking declaratory and injunctive
relief and alleging, among other things, that they breached their fiduciary
duties to Tenet and Hillhaven's other stockholders in connection with their
consideration of Horizon's acquisition proposal and certain other corporate
actions cited in the Horizon and putative class action complaints. The Service
Employees International Union (AFL-CIO) and Joann Sforza, a Hillhaven employee
and union member, are seeking to intervene as party plaintiffs in the Tenet
Action and in one of the putative class actions brought on behalf of Hillhaven's
stockholders, alleging that their interests as stockholders and employees of
Hillhaven are not adequately represented. Hillhaven has opposed this
intervention and believes these actions are without merit.

By stipulation of the parties, the proceedings in the Tenet Action have
been dismissed with prejudice. No schedule has been established with respect to
further proceedings in the Nevada State Court Actions and the California State
Court Actions.

Vencor, Hillhaven and State Street Bank and Trust Company, as Trustee,
