McGuireWoods published a white paper on the future of orthopedic practice investment by private equity firms.
Along with providing information on eight recent private equity investments in orthopedics, the white paper outlines investment considerations related to market dynamics and regulatory compliance. The white paper touches on alternative payment models, practice ownership and ancillary services as well as how ASCs, physician-owned distributorships and hospital relationships affect potential PE deals.
McGuireWoods partners Holly Buckley and Gretchen Townshend, and associates Timothy Fry and Amanda Roenius, authored the white paper.
"With a high demand for services, increased case movement to outpatient venues, and high-value ancillaries, the enthusiasm for orthopedic practice investment should continue to swell, sparking a flurry of investments during 2019 and beyond," the authors said.
