- October 5, 2023: Should we expect private equity ownership to have similar effects as hospital-driven acquisitions, or are we witnessing something else entirely different?
Please join Dean Ashish K. Jha and Professor Andy Ryan as we explore the emerging theory and evidence about the impact of private equity in health care including:
Why are private equity firms investing in health care? Do the goals and strategy of private equity differ across sectors (e.g. hospitals, nursing homes, physician practices, and ambulatory surgery centers)?
Is private equity affecting care delivery and spending, including access to care, referral patterns, and health care prices?
How does private equity affect physician work and the substitution of non-physician labor for patient care? How does this compare to the impact of hospital ownership?
What is the lifecycle of private equity investment and how will future divestment affect health care?
Panelists include:
Chris Whaley, Associate Professor of Health Services, Policy and Practice
Yashaswini Singh, Assistant Professor of Health Services, Policy and Practice
Cory King, RI Health Insurance Commissioner
Erin Fuse Brown, Catherine C. Henson Professor of Law; Director Center for Law, Health & Society, Georgia State University College of Law

Artificially paywalled access to basic necessities like healthcare is incredibly profitable for about 200,000 very rich people.
At the cost of literally millions of lives every single year.
Congratulations on your birthday and anniversary. The points you make are self-evident. Medicine is a gigantic swindle, and has been long before "managed care". Only solution is to uproot it "root and branch". My suggestion is to laminate [on the back of every US driver's license a license ] a license to practice medicine.
A nice and then utterly insane comment
Thank you for acknowledging my comment.
Hearing your intro again, has reactivated my interest in PE and healthcare. I watched an excellent video today about post-war Britain, 1947, and newly elected labour PM Clement Atlee.
A period of transformation in terms of Social welfare, particularly the NHS. GOVERNMENT, not the financial markets, took up the reins to advance the needs of the community. Healthcare, transport, banking (even the City of London) were all Nationalized! People over profits.
Corporate raiders entered healthcare, because it's where the money is!
Will be the biggest impediment to Universal health care. An indication of how terribly society has deteriorated.
My husband practiced dentistry for 30 years, and I'm glad he's not around to see this.
my suggestion for one small step forward =
Agent from which the medicare [advantage] contract is obtained should also be a fundamental agent in the medical office billing structure and responsible for arbitrating any billing payment disputes. The last resort option = arbitration = healthcare oversight.
Blah blah all talk and nothing gets better…this is nothing new🤮
