Overview
Confident Decisions for Physician Practice Growth
Acquiring physician practices is a critical growth strategy—but it’s also complex. Evolving care delivery models, competitive pressures, and provider workforce trends make it difficult to accurately assess strategic fit, financial viability, and long-term value. Fragmented data and inconsistent evaluation frameworks only add risk, leading to missed opportunities, integration challenges, and costly missteps.
HSG’s Physician Practice Acquisition Support brings clarity to complexity. By integrating market analytics, provider data, and strategic insights, we help hospitals and health systems evaluate, prioritize, and execute acquisitions with confidence. Our approach uncovers growth opportunities, assesses strategic alignment, and supports data-driven investment decisions—so every acquisition strengthens your market position and delivers measurable value.
How We Work
The Challenge: Accurately Assessing Strategic Fit and Financial Viability Amid Market Complexity
Integrating fragmented data into a clear evaluation framework only adds to the challenge by creating:
- Difficulty assessing market share, referral patterns, and patient utilization across physician practices and service lines.
- Limited integration of provider capacity, geographic coverage, and demographic trends, obscuring true strategic value and growth potential.
- Inadequate frameworks for prioritizing acquisition targets based on financial performance, strategic alignment, and operational readiness.
- Disconnected or outdated evaluation processes that fail to reflect current market conditions or support scalable growth strategies.
- Lack of actionable, system-wide plans that align stakeholder priorities and support strategic objectives across employed, affiliated, and independent physician groups.
HSG’s physician practice acquisition evaluation services enable hospitals and health systems to make informed, data-driven decisions about acquiring physician practices. Using the HSG Dashboard, organizations can visualize and monitor key analytics—including provider supply and demand, patient flow, market share, and financial performance—to assess strategic fit, identify risks, and prioritize acquisition opportunities.
