Today’s health market has entered a new age of collaboration, innovation and disruption. With the shift to value-based care turning the healthcare industry on its head, forward thinking leaders are looking toward innovative alliances through mergers and acquisitions to improve quality of care and delivery, financial outcomes, and operational efficiencies.
Making these innovative and transformative business ventures a reality comes with significant regulatory and transactional challenges, and there are many opportunities for a deal to go off course.

Our transaction leaders bring highly focused skills and broad industry experience to bear on all elements of a transaction. We seamlessly integrate technical specialties with transactional, regulatory and controversy-contextual knowledge (e.g., Medicare reimbursement, the Stark Law) and have significant daily experience advising on these matters at operational and strategic levels. This cross-functional approach enables our team to anticipate change and craft creative solutions that avoid redundancy and delay, so that transactions are executed in a timely, cost-effective manner. Our deep regulatory bench and broad transactional backgrounds give us insight into the regulatory, reimbursement and operational issues that, in less experienced hands, can derail transactions and destroy value.
Because we have counseled hospitals and health systems across the United States and around the globe, our dedicated healthcare M&A teams have a complete understanding of the federal and state regulatory landscape and can quickly identify the local regulatory matters that, in conjunction with federal laws and regulations, will influence the outcome of a transaction.
Together, we’re pushing boundaries and knocking down barriers to usher in a new age of healthcare collaboration.
