Private Equity and Investors

Healthcare has proven to be one of the most lucrative and competitive markets for PE Firms and Investors. Regulatory compliance due diligence is now an essential part of the acquisition process. But the process is complicated and requires unique vertical skills and knowledge of government and payor regulations.
