The “Healthcare Services Report” for the third quarter of this year analyzed investor activity in the healthcare sector, identifying market trends, deal counts and other financial updates.
As of Sept. 30, there were 151 estimated private equity deals in healthcare in the third quarter, a drop of 28.7% compared to the second quarter of 2023. This drop in both the number of deals as well as the decline in the total value of investments indicates investors are focused on smaller deals, existing platform growth and restructuring deals, rather than big-budget projects and transactions, according to PitchBook.
At ASCs, there has been one private equity-backed line growth deal in 2023 as of Sept. 30 and five add-on investments.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
