Private Equity

PDF

The Health Care industry is undergoing unprecedented growth and innovation.

Hall Render’s private equity team of attorneys and advisors leverage the strength and depth of our bench to navigate and efficiently execute private equity transactions. Health care continues to drive private equity activity, creating opportunities for investors and traditional health care providers. Transactions in the health care space are especially complicated, layering health care regulatory and reimbursement considerations on top of a complex securities, antitrust, employment, privacy and security framework.

Our private equity team focuses solely on health care transactions. This singular focus puts us on the front lines of trends and developments in the health care private equity space. The result is practical, strategic counsel to our clients.

Areas of Focus

  • Bolt-On Acquisition
  • Contract Negotiation and Preparation
  • General Business Transactions and Services
  • Hospital and Health System Counsel
  • Mergers & Acquisitions
  • Platform Acquisition
  • Private Credit

The Hall Render Advantage

Hall Render’s experienced private equity team provides the full scope of health care private equity transaction services, including platform acquisitions and bolt-on deals involving hospitals, physician groups and ancillary service providers. Our dedication to health care allows us to fully assess potential economic and compliance risks during due diligence, and makes us an ideal strategic partner for deal counsel on health care due diligence. We also support restructuring and insolvency counsel to assist clients navigating regulatory hurdles during bankruptcy and restructurings. Our team includes former in-house general counsel for private equity portfolio companies, providing a unique insight into our role as outside general counsel for such companies, advising on day-to-day legal matters, as well as transactional, operational and compliance issues. We have a dedicated value-based care team to advise private equity clients on risk-taking in the value-based space, whether through accountable care organizations, value-based enterprises or other value-based care platforms.
