Ira Coleman of McDermott, on Health Care Investment, Consolidation, and Value-Based Care

Ira Coleman used McDermott’s 2016 Health Care Services Private Equity Symposium to comment on private equity deals in the healthcare sector. He described the “really huge” number of deals in 2015 as “sell anything that’s not nailed down,” ascribing it to ”a confluence of events going on: cheap money, good reasons to consolidate, and the cycle of people wanting these high multiples that were going on in the deal flow.”
