Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Plan Sponsor
LifePoint Hospitals, Inc. Retirement Plan
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of the LifePoint
Hospitals, Inc. Retirement Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2005, and the related statement of
changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The
Plan is not required to have, nor have we been engaged to perform, an audit of the Plans internal
control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plans
internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2005, and the
changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year then ended, in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as
a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31,
2005, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial
statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labors Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plans management. The supplemental
schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the financial
statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
financial statements taken as a whole.

LifePoint Hospitals, Inc. Retirement Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2005
Note 1 Description of the Plan
The following description of the LifePoint Hospitals, Inc. Retirement Plan (the Plan) provides
only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete
description of the Plans provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all employees of LifePoint Hospitals, Inc. (the
Company) who have completed two full months of service and are age 21 or older. The Plan is
subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
(ERISA).
The Plan includes a component that is an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) within the
meaning of Section 4975(e)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). As an
ESOP, the Plan generates certain favorable federal income tax consequences for the Company through
an acquisition loan from the Company, as described in Note 6. These shares are held in an ESOP
suspense account and are released to participant accounts as the loan is repaid. The Plan uses
Company contributions to repay the loan principal and interest.
Contributions
Each participant may elect to contribute up to 50% of his or her pre-tax compensation to the Plan
(Salary Deferral Contribution). An automatic 2% Salary Deferral Contribution is applied to all
participants who do not make a contrary election. Participants who have attained age 50 before the
close of the Plan year are eligible to make catch-up contributions subject to the Codes
limitations.
The Plan provides a matching contribution of Company stock in an amount equal to 100% of the amount
the participant has elected as a Salary Deferral Contribution for that payroll period, up to 3% of
the participants compensation.
In any Plan year, the Company may contribute to participants accounts Company stock as
determined by the Company (ESOP Contributions). In addition, discretionary
Company profit sharing contributions may be made by the Company (Profit
Sharing Contributions). To be eligible for an allocation of the ESOP Contributions and Profit
Sharing Contributions, a participant must meet the following requirements:
|
(i) |
|
Participant is age 21 or older on the last day of the Plan year; |
|
|
(ii) |
|
Participant completed one year of service during the Plan year; and |
|
|
(iii) |
|
Participant is an employee as of the last day of the Plan year. |
An additional contribution by the Company in an amount determined by the Company to ensure that the
Plan satisfies certain nondiscrimination requirements of the Code may be allocated solely to the
accounts of participants who are considered non-highly compensated employees and have elected to
make Salary Deferral Contributions for the Plan year (Unilateral Employer Contributions).
During 2005, the Company changed its contribution calculation to approximately 2.5% of the
Companys salaries and wages expense. Prior to 2005, contributions were limited to a fixed amount shares of
the Companys common stock (279,672 shares) released to participants in the Plan. Subsequent to the
Province Business Combination (defined in Note 3) and the 2005 acquisitions of Wythe County
Community Hospital (WCCH) and Danville Regional Medical Center (DRMC) (together, the 2005
Acquisitions) the Company determined the fixed number of shares historically released to the
Plans participants was not adequate to provide the appropriate employee benefit to the Companys
increased number of employees. Therefore, the Companys Plan contributions increased and a portion
of the contributions were funded with cash contributions during the year ended December 31, 2005.
The Plan received approximately $3,200,000 in cash contributions from the Company during the year
ended December 31, 2005.
7
Participant Accounts
Each participants account is credited (charged) with the participants contributions, the Companys
contributions (a portion of which results in shares of the Companys common stock released from the ESOP
suspense account), and Plan earnings (losses). Allocations are based on participants earnings
(losses) or account balances, as defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the
benefit that can be provided from the participants vested account. Contributions and allocations
are subject to certain limitations under the Code. The Plan allows participants who are fully
vested to diversify their ESOP contributions by investing in other securities available under the
Plan.
Payment of Benefits
Upon retirement, disability, death, or termination of employment, the total vested value of a
participants account that exceeds $5,000 is distributed to the participant or the beneficiary, as
applicable, in cash unless the participant or the beneficiary elects certain other forms of
distribution available under the Plan. If the vested value of a participants account is less than
$1,000 the total vested balance is distributed as an automatic lump sum payment in cash. For
participant accounts greater than $1,000 but less than $5,000, the
vested value of the participants
account is rolled into an individual retirement account on behalf of the participant. A
participants contributions may also be withdrawn for certain hardship situations.
Participant Loans
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum amount equal
to the lesser of $50,000 or one-half of the respective participants vested account balance. Loan
terms range from one half a year to five years or up to ten years if the loan is used for the
purchase of a primary residence. The loans are secured by the vested balance in the respective
participants account and bear interest at a rate commensurate with local prevailing
rates, ranging from 4.0% to 9.5% as of December 31, 2005, as determined by the plan administrator.
Principal and interest are paid by the participant ratably through payroll deductions.
Vesting and Forfeitures
Participants are immediately fully vested in their Salary Deferral Contributions, Unilateral
Employer Contributions, rollover contributions and investment earnings (losses) arising from these
contributions. Salary Deferral Matching Contribution Allocations, ESOP Contributions, Profit
Sharing Contributions and certain accounts transferred from HCA Inc. sponsored benefit plans are
subject to a vesting schedule based on the participants number of years of service as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
Years of Service |
|
Vested Percentage |
|
|
Less than 2 years |
|
|
0 |
% |
2 years but less than 3 |
|
|
20 |

3 years but less than 4 |
|
|

|
60 |
% |
5 years but less than 6 |
|
|
80 |
% |
6 years or more |
|
|
100 |
% |
Participants interest in their accounts become fully vested and nonforfeitable without regard to
their credited years of service if they are employed by the Company on or after age 65, attain age
55 and have completed 10 years of service, incur a total and permanent disability or die while
employed by the Company.
If a participant who is not fully vested terminates employment with the Company, the participant is
entitled to the vested portion of their account. The non-vested portion is forfeited and is used to
reduce future Company contributions, pay administrative expenses of the Plan or is reallocated to
participants in the Plan, if forfeitures from ESOP accounts occur. Unused forfeitures totaled
$3,995,996 at December 31, 2005 and no forfeitures were used to pay Plan expenses, reduce employer
contributions, or allocated to participants during the year then ended.
Plan Termination
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to
discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan. In the event of Plan
termination, participants will receive the vested and non-vested portions of their accounts.

Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in
the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
The Plans investments are held, and transactions are executed, by U.S. Trust Company, N.A. (the
ESOP Trustee) for the ESOP portion of the Plan and by Northern Trust Company (the Trustee) for
the non-ESOP portion of the Plan. Investments in mutual funds and equity
securities are stated at fair value by the ESOP Trustee and the Trustee and are based on quoted
prices in an active market. The value of collective trust funds are based upon the current value of and net investment gains or losses relating to the units of participation held by the Plan. Securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the
last reported sales price on the last business day of the Plan year. Participant loans are valued
at their outstanding balances, which approximates fair value.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded
on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses, including legal and participant accounting expenses, and all expenses
directly relating to the investments are charged to and paid by the Plan unless paid by the
Company.
Benefit Payments
Benefits are recorded when paid.
Note 3 Province Business Combination
On April 15, 2005, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 15, 2004, by
and among Historic LifePoint Hospitals, Inc. (formerly LifePoint Hospitals, Inc.) (Historic
LifePoint), the Company, Lakers Acquisition Corp. (LifePoint Merger Sub), Pacers Acquisition
Corp. (Province Merger Sub) and Province Healthcare Company (Province), as amended by Amendment
No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 25, 2005, and Amendment No. 2 to
Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 15, 2005 (as amended), the Company acquired all of
the outstanding capital stock of each of Historic LifePoint and Province through the merger of
LifePoint Merger Sub with and into Historic LifePoint, with Historic LifePoint continuing as the
surviving corporation of such merger (the LifePoint Merger), and the merger of Province Merger
Sub with and into Province, with Province continuing as the surviving corporation of such merger
(together with the LifePoint Merger, the Province Business Combination). As a result of the
Province Business Combination, each of Historic LifePoint and Province is now a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company.
As a result of the Province Business Combination, the Company became the successor issuer to
Historic LifePoint under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), and
succeeded to Historic LifePoints reporting obligations under the Exchange Act. In connection with
the closing of the Province Business Combination, shares of Historic LifePoint Common Stock, which
had been listed and traded on the NASDAQ National Market under the ticker symbol LPNT, are no
longer listed and traded on the NASDAQ National Market. However, shares of Company common stock are
now listed and traded on the NASDAQ National Market under the ticker symbol LPNT.
Upon completion of the merger on April 15, 2005, through May 15, 2005, the Province 401(k) plan was
in operation and its participants and the Company continued to make contributions to that plan. On
May 15, 2005, all former Province employees who became employees of the Company and who met all
eligibility requirements except for the two months service to the Company were automatically
eligible to participate in the Plan.

Note 6 Note Payable to LifePoint Hospitals, Inc.
On June 9, 1999, the Plan purchased 2,796,719 shares of the Companys common stock from the Company
at $11.50 per share for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $32,162,000. The Plan issued a
note payable to the Company (the ESOP Note) in an amount equal to the purchase price. The ESOP
Note is secured by a pledge of the unallocated stock. The ESOP Note is payable in ten annual
payments of $4,636,517, which includes interest on the outstanding principal balance at an annual
rate of 8%.
The purchased shares are held by the ESOP Trustee in a suspense account and a portion of these
shares is allocated on a quarterly and annual basis. Through December 31, 2004 and 2005, 1,493,626
and 1,868,287 shares, respectively, had been allocated to participant accounts.
The purchase price for the Companys common stock was acknowledged to be no greater than the
prevailing price of the Companys common stock quoted on NASDAQ at June 9, 1999. The Company makes
contributions in cash to the Plan which, when aggregated with the Plans dividends and interest
earnings, equal the amount necessary to enable the Plan to make regularly scheduled payments of
principal and interest due on the ESOP Note. Based on this determination, and subject to
limitations contained in the Code, the Company is entitled to claim an income tax deduction for
contributions to the Plan for the year to which such contributions relate. The participants and
beneficiaries of the Plan are not subject to income tax with respect to contributions made on their
behalf until they receive distributions from the Plan.
The scheduled amortization of the ESOP Note for the remaining three years is as follows:

Note 7 Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various
risks such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with
certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of
investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect
participants account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available
for benefits.
11
Note 8 Income Tax Status
The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service, dated January 15,
2003, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and that the related
trust is exempt from taxation. Subsequent to this determination by the Internal Revenue Service,
the Plan was amended. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code
to maintain its qualification. The Company has indicated that it will take the necessary steps, if
any, to bring the Companys operations into compliance with the Code.
Note 9 Party-In-Interest Transactions
The issuance of the ESOP Note payable to the Company for the purchase of the Companys common stock
and contributions received by the Plan from the Company to fund principal and interest payments on
the ESOP Note are considered transactions with parties-in-interest. Certain Plan investments are
shares of trust funds managed by the Trustee and, therefore, such transactions qualify as
party-in-interest transactions. Purchases and sales of assets through the ESOP Trustee and Trustee
are also considered party-in-interest transactions. The Plan also
holds investments in the form of participant loans, such transactions
qualify as party-in-interest transactions. All of these transactions are permissible under
specific exemptions included in ERISA and the Code.
