Healthcare Payors, Plans, and Specialty Services
The flattening of the traditional healthcare market poses challenges for payors in the areas of pricing discipline, acquisition integration, diversification, regulation, and consumerism. Simultaneously the specialty sub-sector of healthcare is experiencing a coming-of-age and, with it, the common challenges of a maturing industry, including mergers and acquisitions, the need for cost containment, and pressure to create operational efficiency.

Our specialists understand the pressures affecting payors and specialty healthcare companies. Our extensive real estate advisory and transactional experience is drawn from both sides of the table—our professionals have worked for and on the staff of healthcare organizations. We work with our clients to increase their profitability by aligning their real estate with organizational objectives. Our services include strategic portfolio management; benchmarking & “mark-to-market” studies; risk reduction strategy development, merger and acquisition integration; transaction management; acquisition due-diligence; economic incentive negotiation; and logistics and process integration.

Hospital Systems, Healthcare Practices, and Medical/Academic Properties
Healthcare providers are under pressure to extend their financial resources by reducing costs and monetizing assets. Sarbanes-Oxley-driven transparency, the trend towards self-pay patients, and the complexities of mergers and acquisitions are compounding the challenge. Enter the Healthcare Practice Group.

Our specialists offer healthcare providers—hospitals, physicians, healthcare practices, and the users/owners of medical/academic properties—a means to improve operational efficiency and cash-flow. We provide a variety of industry-specific, high value services: facility and strategic planning; facility expansion and relocation analysis; portfolio and project management; construction management; real estate cost and opportunity investment analysis; lease and property acquisition and disposition; financial analysis and deal structuring; and lease administration and auditing.

Senior Housing & Healthcare Investments
The aging population, regulatory changes, and the growth of consumerism are creating unique challenges and opportunities in the senior housing and healthcare arena. Our specialists work with owners, operators and investors in this arena—covering independent living facilities, assisted living facilities, skilled nursing facilities, continuing care retirement communities, and dementia facilities—to ensure real estate is aligned with strategic, operational and financial goals and returns maximized.

Our specialists bring an operational and management consulting mindset to real estate services and an insiders understanding to the nuances of this industry. Be it acquisition or disposition transactional services, capital markets financing, market studies, operations reviews, or valuations, our team has the experience and resources to provide the required solutions.
