  • Healthcare Transactions: Year in Review
    HEALTHCARE TRANSACTIONS: YEAR IN REVIEW JANUARY 2019 bassberry.com OVERVIEW 2018 marked a year of continued robust healthcare merger and acquisition activity, with deal volume surpassing that of 2017. The dollar volume of healthcare deals also exceeded 2017, highlighted by CVS Health Corp. (NYSE: CVS) surviving regulatory scrutiny and finalizing its purchase of Aetna for $69 billion, and Cigna (NYSE: CI) closing its $67 billion merger with pharmacy benefit manager Express Scripts (Nasdaq: ESRX). Private equity firm KKR & Co. Inc. (NYSE: KKR) acquired Envision Healthcare Corporation (NYSE: EVHC) in a going private transaction for $9.9 billion; and in November, LifePoint Health, Inc. (Nasdaq: LPNT) merged with Apollo Global Management-owned RCCH HealthCare Partners for an estimated $5.6 billion. Not only do these deals show the energy of the industry, but they also represent a seismic shift in healthcare. Cross-sector transactions, such as the CVS-Aetna and Cigna-Express Scripts transactions, are becoming more frequent and disrupt traditional industry models. By seeking alliances across industry lines, healthcare companies aim both to reduce costs and improve care coordination as well as realign incentives to better meet consumer demands. As providers fight to stay profitable in the wake of value-based reimbursement, these cross-sector combinations may foreshadow the future of the healthcare industry. Many of these same drivers also have led to increasing private equity investment in the industry. The need for innovation and disruption via consolidation adds further appeal to investors. The injection of capital by private equity firms allows healthcare providers to cut costs and increase efficiencies, and the shift in reimbursement presents a unique opportunity for firms to help providers and systems reposition.

  • Private Equity Buyouts in Healthcare: Who Wins, Who Loses? Eileen Appelbaum and Rosemary Batt Working Paper No
    Private Equity Buyouts in Healthcare: Who Wins, Who Loses? Eileen Appelbaum* and Rosemary Batt† Working Paper No. 118 March 15, 2020 ABSTRACT Private equity firms have become major players in the healthcare industry. How has this happened and what are the results? What is private equity’s ‘value proposition’ to the industry and to the American people -- at a time when healthcare is under constant pressure to cut costs and prices? How can PE firms use their classic leveraged buyout model to ‘save healthcare’ while delivering ‘outsized returns’ to investors? In this paper, we bring together a wide range of sources and empirical evidence to answer these questions. Given the complexity of the sector, we focus on four segments where private equity firms have been particularly active: hospitals, outpatient care (urgent care and ambulatory surgery centers), physician staffing and emergency * Co-Director and Senior Economist, Center for Economic and Policy Research.

We thank Andrea Beaty, Aimee La France, and Kellie Franzblau for able research assistance. room services (surprise medical billing), and revenue cycle management (medical debt collecting). In each of these segments, private equity has taken the lead in consolidating small providers, loading them with debt, and rolling them up into large powerhouses with substantial market power before exiting with handsome returns. https://doi.org/10.36687/inetwp118 JEL Codes: I11 G23 G34 Keywords: Private Equity, Leveraged Buyouts, health care industry, financial engineering, surprise medical billing revenue cycle management, urgent care, ambulatory care.

    VALUE FOCUS REAL ESTATE Sector Focus: Healthcare Real Estate Second Quarter 2017 Healthcare Facilities 1 Macro Indicators 3 Industry Performance and M&A Activity 6 Publicly Traded Companies Hospitality 9 Residential 11 Healthcare 12 Commercial Real Estate 16 About Mercer Capital 22 www.mercercapital.com Mercer Capital’s Value Focus: Real Estate Industry Second Quarter 2017 Healthcare Facilities As of the most recent data in 2015, healthcare spending in the United States was $3.2 trillion. Average annual growth in national healthcare expenditures from 2015 to 2025 is expected to be approximately 5.6%. As a share of gross domestic product, national healthcare expenditure is expected to increase from 17.8% in 2015 to 19.9% by 2025. Demand for medical office buildings (MOBs) is driven primarily by demographic characteristics, rather than economic trends. This has contributed to more stable performance for the medical office building segment during a period when office space in general has underperformed. Consolidation continued in the industry during 2016, spurred by efforts to cut costs and offset lower insurance reimbursement rates. This trend has encouraged demand for larger office space and weakened the market for smaller, individual healthcare facilities, although ambulatory centers associated with larger hospitals are an exception. Merger and acquisition activity is expected to pick up in 2017, following an 8.0% increase in transactions in the first quarter. Of 27 transactions during the first quarter, three included organizations with revenues of $1 billion or greater. Average rents in the medical office space were $24.00 per square foot in 2016, which represents an 8.0% increase over the prior year and 8.3% above the $22.16 low observed in early 2013.
