Exploring your choices for private equity
The selling of your practice assets to a private equity company can seem complicated and uncertain. There is no shortage of interested private equity firms seeking ophthalmology and/or optometric practices with a predictive growth strategy. But is private equity the right fit for you and the vision you have for your practice? And how do you know which one to consider? What is involved and how does it all work? Moving forward with a private equity partner is much more than just money. It’s a business relationship where you and your capital partner are aligned in your goals and vision for the future. You need someone representing your interests, not the buyer.
BENEFITS OF A CAPITAL PARTNERSHIP
Monetize Your Practice
The value of your practice is maximized with a private equity transaction. The monetary gain from a large capital infusion coupled with new ownership opportunities creates multiple liquidity events over time.
Support System
Most private equity companies will provide you with expansive resources to rapidly scale your surgical growth. As a surgeon partner, you are heavily involved in this process. Backoffice resources, employee benefits and a centralized billing systems are all items you no longer have to manage.
Mitigate Risk
The future of medical care remains volatile. Costs continue to rise while Medicare continues to dilute reimbursement fees. Factor in the unforeseen as evidenced by a pandemic’s effect on your business, the potential for socialized medicine and it becomes clear that nothing is guaranteed and risk should be actively managed. Private equity is an opportunity to de-risk your position and not go it alone.
Peace of Mind
As a surgeon partner in a capital partnership, you can focus on why you became a doctor to begin with. Caring for patients. The challenges in managing the lengthy and complex business components of being a medical practitioner are bifurcated so you can focus on what matters most to you.
At Pegasus Equity Advisors we can initiate and guide you through this process so you can make an informed decision.
