The FTC has issued a proposed order requiring Sevita to divest more than 100 healthcare facilities (i.e., the agency has formally taken that enforcement action).
The FTC press release (Jan. 30, 2026) states the agency issued a proposed consent order requiring Sevita Health to divest 128 intermediate care facilities (ICFs) and related assets to resolve antitrust concerns arising from Sevita’s proposed acquisition of BrightSpring’s ResCare Community Living business. BrightSpring’s Jan. 20, 2025 investor release confirms the transaction to sell the Community Living business to Sevita for $835 million. Verdict: True — primary sources show the FTC’s proposed order requires divestiture of more than 100 facilities (128 ICFs) to address antitrust concerns in the $835 million acquisition.
