Business Valuation

The impending expansion of accountable and value-based reimbursement methodologies is catalyzing a new round of consolidation throughout the healthcare provider industry. Hospitals and health systems are increasingly turning to physician employment, mergers, and acquisitions to secure key clinical resources in order to ensure that their services can be provided in a coordinated and cost-efficient manner across the continuum of care. A business valuation is generally required as part of the general due diligence for any of these transactions and is imperative to ensure compliance with federal regulations.
