EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Post-Effective Amendment relates to the following Registration Statements of Community Health Systems, Inc. (the “Registrant”) (collectively, the “Registration Statements”):

The Registration Statements collectively registered 2,250,000 shares of the Registrant’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) and an indeterminate number of interests, which were to be offered and sold pursuant to the CHS/Community Health Systems, Inc. 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”).

Effective January 1, 2015, the Common Stock was eliminated from the investment alternatives under the Plan. As a result, the Registrant intends to deregister its plan interests under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in each of the Registration Statements to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any securities which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes and withdraws from registration the Common Stock and the related indeterminate interests registered pursuant to the Registration Statements that remain unsold as of the date hereof.
