At first, the retreat of practice management companies looked like a great opening for hospitals. What better way to acquire prime medical groups from motivated sellers? Trouble is, you still need a motivated buyer. That's why some observers contend hospitals will purchase only a fraction of medical groups being divested by MedPartners and other retrenching firms.
起初,医疗管理公司的撤离似乎为医院带来了绝佳机遇。从有意出售的卖家手中收购优质医疗集团,还有比这更好的办法吗?问题在于,你仍需要一个有购买意愿的买家。这就是为什么一些观察家认为,医院只会收购美迪派特公司(MedPartners)和其他收缩业务的公司所剥离医疗集团的一小部分。
