If you engage in a business transaction—like a merger or acquisition involving your healthcare organization—you absolutely must analyze insurance and risk as part of your due diligence. If you fail to take insurance and risk into account, you could miss “land mines” that negatively affect your revenue and profits.
Our due diligence professionals have deep experience and expertise in managing the risks inherent in healthcare deals. We know it’s critical to quantify your potential risk exposure, protect your organization’s value, and effectively integrate merged and acquired systems.
We evaluate all your risk exposures and their implications for your total cost of risk, and we uncover all opportunities to improve your post-closing risk management cost structure. We ask questions key like:
- Does the entity that you’re merging with or acquiring overpay (or underpay) for insurance?
- Can the target entity take on more risk to reduce your costs and improve your profits?
- Can you restructure the combined entities’ medical professional liability (MPL) insurance program to reduce both cost and risk?
If you don’t execute a business transaction properly, you and your investors might be exposed to unnecessary risks that could negatively impact both the short-term profits and the long-term value of your organization.
