Ensuring certainty and efficiency in the transaction process
The shared goals of any healthcare transaction can quickly become issues and concerns, as all parties seek to balance compliance considerations with tax planning and business strategies. We provide guidance throughout; removing the uncertainties of investing into or selling a healthcare business, and facilitating an efficient transaction process.
Consolidation in the healthcare industry looks set to continue, driven particularly by private equity investment. Innovative healthcare delivery models focused on value-based care, coordinated care and other shared-risk models continue to gain popularity. And they’re serving as the catalyst for a number of public company SPAC transactions and vertical integration among payors and providers. Additionally, the use of telemedicine, technology and artificial intelligence is growing fast and attracting new investors and capital. We help our clients make the most of these growth opportunities.
In healthcare transactions, we understand the need for innovative solutions that address the intense day-to-day realities of the industry. Our quick, creative thinking has often solved tricky regulatory challenges and helped deals close successfully.
We also help with day-to-day matters arising within a fund’s portfolio of healthcare companies. These include negotiating and drafting employment agreements with clinicians, enforcing non-compete restrictions, developing Stark Law and regulatorily compliant physician compensation incentive models, establishing joint ventures, managing payor contracting negotiations, and other contracting and transactional matters.
We’re leaders in the field, having handled more M&A deals than any other law firm in the last 13 years, according to Mergermarket. We’ve also been recognized by Pitchbook as the number one legal advisor to investors, and one of the most active legal advisors in several private equity sectors, including healthcare.
Where there’s opportunity for growth, we’ll partner with you to ensure the process is seamless and efficient.
