Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Marketable Securities As of December 31, 2018, marketable securities of $14.9 million are stated at fair value based on valuations provided by third-party pricing services and are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. The Company recognized gains of $1.4 million and $0.6 million for marketable securities within interest income on the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Interest Rate Derivatives The Company's derivative assets include interest rate caps that effectively manage the risk above certain interest rates for a portion of the Company's variable rate debt. The derivative positions are valued using models developed internally by the respective counterparty that use as their basis readily available observable market parameters (such as forward yield curves) and are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. The Company considers the credit risk of its counterparties when evaluating the fair value of its derivatives. The following table summarizes the Company's interest rate cap instruments as of December 31, 2018:

Estimated asset fair value (included in other assets, net at December 31, 2017) | $ | 38 |
Debt The Company estimates the fair value of its debt using a discounted cash flow analysis based upon the Company's current borrowing rate for debt with similar maturities and collateral securing the indebtedness. The Company had outstanding debt (excluding capital and financing lease obligations) with a carrying value of approximately $3.6 billion and $3.9 billion as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Fair value of the debt approximates carrying value in all periods. The Company's fair value of debt disclosure is classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

Goodwill During the three months ended September 30, 2017, the Company identified qualitative indicators of impairment of goodwill, including a significant decline in the Company's stock price and market capitalization for a sustained period since the last testing date, significant underperformance relative to historical and projected operating results, and an increased competitive environment in the senior living industry. Based upon the Company's qualitative assessment, the Company performed an interim quantitative goodwill impairment test as of September 30, 2017, which included a comparison of the estimated fair value of each reporting unit to which the goodwill has been assigned with the reporting unit's carrying value. In estimating the fair value of the reporting units for purposes of the quantitative goodwill impairment test, the Company utilized an income approach, which included future cash flow projections that are developed internally. Any estimates of future cash flow projections necessarily involve predicting unknown future circumstances and events and require significant management judgments and estimates. In arriving at the cash flow projections, the Company considered its historic operating results, approved budgets and business plans, future demographic factors, expected growth rates, and other factors. In using the income approach to estimate the fair value of reporting units for purposes of its goodwill impairment test, the Company made certain key assumptions. Those assumptions include future revenues, facility operating expenses, and cash flows, including sales proceeds that the Company would receive upon a sale of the communities using estimated capitalization rates, all of which are considered Level 3 inputs in the valuation hierarchy within ASC 820. The Company corroborated the estimated capitalization rates used in these calculations with capitalization rates observable from recent market transactions. Future cash flows are discounted at a rate that is consistent with a weighted average cost of capital from a market participant perspective. The weighted average cost of capital is an estimate of the overall after-tax rate of return required by equity and debt holders of a business enterprise. The Company also considered market based measures such as earnings multiples in its analysis of estimated fair values of its reporting units. Based on the results of the Company's quantitative goodwill impairment test, the Company determined that the carrying value of the Company's Assisted Living and Memory Care reporting unit exceeded its estimated fair value by $205.0 million as of September 30, 2017. As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $205.0 million to goodwill within the Assisted Living and Memory Care segment for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The Company concluded that goodwill for all reporting units was not impaired as of October 1, 2017 (the Company's annual measurement date) and as of December 31, 2017. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company identified qualitative indicators of impairment of goodwill, including a significant decline in the Company's stock price and market capitalization for a sustained period during the three months ended March 31, 2018. As a result, the Company performed an interim quantitative goodwill impairment test as of March 31, 2018, which included a comparison of the estimated fair value of each reporting unit to which the goodwill has been assigned with the reporting unit's carrying value. In estimating the fair value of the reporting units for purposes of the quantitative goodwill impairment test, the Company utilized an income approach, which included future cash flow projections that are developed internally. Based on the results of the Company's quantitative goodwill impairment test, the Company determined that the carrying value of the Company's Assisted Living and Memory Care reporting unit exceeded its estimated fair value by more than the $351.7 million carrying value as of March 31, 2018. As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $351.7 million to goodwill within the Assisted Living and Memory Care segment for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The Company concluded that goodwill for all reporting units was not impaired as of October 1, 2018 (the Company's annual measurement date) and as of December 31, 2018. Goodwill allocated to the Company's Independent Living and Health Care Services reporting units is approximately $27.3 million and $126.8 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2018. Determining the fair value of the Company’s reporting units involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, which the Company believes to be reasonable, that are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. These estimates and assumptions include revenue growth rates and operating margins used to calculate projected future cash flows and risk-adjusted discount rates. Future events may indicate differences from management's current judgments and estimates which could, in turn, result in future impairments. Future events that may result in impairment charges include increases in interest rates, which could impact capitalization and discount rates, differences in the projected occupancy rates and changes in the cost structure of existing communities. Significant adverse changes in the Company’s future revenues and/or operating margins, significant changes in the market for senior housing or the valuation of the real estate of senior living communities, as well as other events and circumstances, including but not limited to increased competition and changing economic or market conditions, including market control premiums, could result in changes in fair value and the determination that additional goodwill is impaired. Property, Plant and Equipment and Leasehold Intangibles During the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, the Company evaluated property, plant and equipment and leasehold intangibles for impairment and identified properties with a carrying amount of the assets in excess of the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. The Company compared the estimated fair value of the assets to their carrying value for these identified properties and recorded an impairment charge for the excess of carrying value over fair value. The Company recorded property, plant and equipment and leasehold intangibles non-cash impairment charges in its operating results of $78.0 million, $164.4 million and $166.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively, primarily within the Assisted Living and Memory Care segment. The fair values of the property, plant and equipment of these communities were primarily determined utilizing a direct capitalization method considering stabilized facility operating income and market capitalization rates. These fair value measurements are considered Level 3 measurements within the valuation hierarchy. The range of capitalization rates utilized was 6.5% to 9.0%, depending upon the property type, geographical location, and the quality of the respective community. The Company corroborated the estimated fair values with a sales comparison approach with information observable from recent market transactions. These impairment charges are primarily due to lower than expected operating performance at these properties and reflect the amount by which the carrying values of the assets exceeded their estimated fair value. Investment in Unconsolidated Ventures The Company evaluates realization of its investment in ventures accounted for using the equity method if circumstances indicate that the Company's investment is other than temporarily impaired. During the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded $33.4 million, $25.8 million and $36.8 million, respectively, of non-cash impairment charges related to investments in unconsolidated ventures. These impairment charges are primarily due to lower than expected operating performance at the communities owned by the unconsolidated ventures and reflect the amount by which the carrying values of the investments exceeded their estimated fair value. Refer to Note 4 for more information about the impairment of the Blackstone Venture during 2017. Other Intangible Assets During 2018, the Company identified indicators of impairment for the Company’s home health care licenses, including significant underperformance relative to historical and projected operating results, the impact of lower reimbursement rates from Medicare for home health care services, and an increased competitive environment in the home health care industry. The Company performed a quantitative impairment test, which included a comparison of the estimated fair value of the Company’s home health care licenses to the carrying value. In estimating the fair value of the home health licenses for purposes of the quantitative impairment test, the Company utilized an income approach, which included future cash flow projections that are developed internally. Any estimates of future cash flow projections necessarily involve predicting unknown future circumstances and events and require significant management judgments and estimates. In arriving at the cash flow projections, the Company considered its historic operating results, approved budgets and business plans, future demographic factors, expected growth rates, and other factors, all of which are considered Level 3 inputs in the valuation hierarchy within ASC 820. Based on the results of the Company's quantitative impairment test, the Company determined that the carrying amount of certain of the Company's home health care licenses exceeded their estimated fair value by $9.1 million. As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $9.1 million to intangible assets within the Health Care Services segment for the year ended December 31, 2018. During 2017, the Company identified indicators of impairment for the Company’s home health care licenses in Florida, including significant underperformance relative to historical and projected operating results, decreases in reimbursement rates from Medicare for home health care services, an increased competitive environment in the home health care industry, and disruption from the impact of Hurricane Irma. The Company performed a quantitative impairment test, which included a comparison of the estimated fair value of the Company’s home health care licenses to the carrying value. In estimating the fair value of the home health licenses for purposes of the quantitative impairment test, the Company utilized an income approach, which included future cash flow projections that are developed internally. In arriving at the cash flow projections, the Company considered its historic operating results, approved budgets and business plans, future demographic factors, expected growth rates, and other factors, all of which are considered Level 3 inputs in the valuation hierarchy within ASC 820. Based on the results of the Company's quantitative impairment test, the Company determined that the carrying amount of certain of the Company's home health care licenses in Florida exceeded their estimated fair value by $14.6 million. As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $14.6 million to intangible assets within the Health Care Services segment during the year ended December 31, 2017. During 2016, the Company recorded $28.2 million of non-cash impairment charges related to community purchase options. These impairment charges are primarily due to lower than expected operating performance at the communities subject to the community purchase options and reflect the amount by which the carrying values of the community purchase options exceeded their estimated fair value. The fair values of the community purchase options were determined utilizing a direct capitalization method considering stabilized facility operating income and market capitalization rates for the underlying property subject to the community purchase option. These fair value measurements are considered Level 3 measurements in the valuation hierarchy within ASC 820. These impairment charges are primarily due to lower than expected operating performance at these properties and reflect the amount by which the carrying values of the assets exceeded their estimated fair value. Assets Held for Sale During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recognized $15.6 million of impairment charges related to communities identified as held for sale, primarily due to changes in the estimated fair values. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company did not record impairment expense related to communities identified as held for sale. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded $15.8 million of non-cash impairment charges related to communities identified as held for sale, inclusive of the allocation of goodwill to the disposed communities. These impairment charges are primarily due to the excess of carrying value, including allocated goodwill, over the estimated selling price less costs to dispose. Refer to Note 4 for more information about the Company's community dispositions and assets held for sale.
