HealthSouth Ex-Exec Sentenced; Report Done

HealthSouth Corp. said it had finished a massive internal review that verified years of fraud worth $3.4 billion.

But even as the report provided more evidence of the amount of fraud at the rehabilitation giant, a federal judge sentenced Kenneth Livesay, former assistant controller at HealthSouth, to six months of home confinement.

U.S. District Judge U.W. Clemon in Birmingham, Ala., also sentenced Livesay, who helped in the government’s probe, to five years of probation and ordered him to forfeit $750,000 and pay a $10,000 fine.
