NEW YORK, Aug. 08, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Envision Healthcare Corporation (“Envision” or the “Company”) (NYSE:EVHC) in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee on behalf of a class consisting of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Envision securities on the open market from March 2, 2015 through July 21, 2017, inclusive (the “Class Period”), seeking to recover compensable damages caused by Defendants’ violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

The Complaint alleges that Defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Envision’s operating subsidiary, EmCare Holdings, Inc., routinely arranged for patients who sought treatment at in-network facilities to be treated by out-of-network physicians; (2) EmCare accordingly billed these patients at higher rates than if the patients had received treatment from in-network physicians; (3) Envision’s statements attributing EmCare’s Class Period growth to other factors were therefore false and/or misleading; (4) Envision’s EmCare revenues were likely to be unsustainable after the foregoing conduct came to light; and (5) as a result, Envision’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than October 3, 2017.  A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.  If you wish to join the litigation, or to discuss your rights or interests regarding this class action, please contact Thomas J.
