ITEM 9. Regulation FD Disclosure.

         On July 7, 2003, representatives of HEALTHSOUTH Corporation
("HEALTHSOUTH" or the "Company") made a presentation to HEALTHSOUTH stakeholders
using slides the text of which was included as Exhibit 99 to the Current Report
on Form 8-K to which this Amendment No. 1 relates. After this presentation, the
Company determined that one of these slides, relating to assumptions used in
developing the pro forma financial plan described in the slides, contained two
inadvertent clerical errors. The corrected text of the slide is attached to this
Amendment No. 1 as Exhibit 99.1

         The corrected text merely rectifies the clerical errors, and does not
reflect any modification of the original assumptions underlying the pro forma
financial plan. Correction of these clerical errors has no impact on the pro
forma EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization),
net revenue or margin presented in the pro forma financial plan.

         The information contained herein is furnished pursuant to Item 9 of
Form 8-K and shall not be deemed to be "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or otherwise subject to the liabilities of
that Section, unless we specifically incorporate it by reference in a document
filed under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
By filing this Current Report on Form 8-K and furnishing this information, we
make no admission as to the materiality of any information in this Current
Report on Form 8-K.

         The sections entitled "Cautionary Statements Regarding Projections",
"Forward Looking Statements" and "Note Regarding Presentation of Non-GAAP
Financial Measures" included in the original Current Report on Form 8-K dated
July 7, 2003 are hereby incorporated herein by reference.



                                   SIGNATURES

         Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
the Registrant has duly caused this Current Report on Form 8-K to be signed on
its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
