Envision, through its subsidiaries, provides various healthcare services in the United States.

According to the complaint, Envision's senior executives engaged in a fraudulent scheme to artificially inflate the company's stock price by ordering tests that were medically unnecessary, admitting patients from the emergency room into a hospital for financial reasons, and billing for the most expensive level of care in unwarranted situations. Further, patients who sought treatment at in-network facilities were treated by out-of-network physicians and subsequently billed at higher rates. On July 24, 2017, The New York Times reported that Envision misrepresented the source of its revenues, emergency room and billing procedures, legal compliance, patient safety measures, and internal controls. In reaction to the article, Envision's stock fell 3.72% to close at $60.28 per share on July 24, 2017. Then, on September 18, 2017, Envision announced the retirement of its Chief Financial Officer and the resignation of the President of Physician Services, causing Envision's stock to drop approximately 10% to a close of $43.11 per share on September 19, 2017.
