By: AcquiVise VALLEXA, a merger & acquisition advisory firm that specializes in healthcare services, can confirm the trend with an especially strong interest for deals in the Texas area but also across a wide swath of the country in total. With this projected growth, VALLEXA wonders what direction the owners will choose. VALLEXA urges the buyers that they work with, as well as new buyers for 2013, to reach out to search firms earlier than later so that marketing campaigns for targets can be initiated ASAP in Q1 2013. The vast majority of transactions that take place in home health and hospice have buyers with past industry knowledge and often times most sellers now require that any potential buyers have experience within the home health or hospice space. In doing so, this helps to assure the ease and speed of the transaction as well as the success of the business moving forward. Brian Robinette of VALLEXA has noted that this school of thought was reflected by several Hospice sellers (from hospice license deals to large census hospice agencies) in the 2012 market, across the country.“With years of experience in Healthcare M&A, one of the things we have seen time and again is how imperative it is for a buyer to have previous industry specific knowledge, which is required for a smooth and successful transaction. At the very least, a potential buyer must have a partner or consultant with home health and hospice expertise working very closely with them. Even entry level buyers need to have completed a great deal of Healthcare and Medicare business research before entering into the market as a potential buyer. There are many challenges faced in healthcare related businesses but are well worth it if you have the understanding and knowledge of how these agencies work.” So the time is now to visualize the success of your home health and/or hospice agency. Whether a seller or a buyer, merger or acquisition, divestiture or acquisition; End
