The behavioral health sector got a slight bump in April, when the CMS proposed that inpatient psychiatric facilities receive a 1.6% rate increase from Medicare in fiscal 2016. Quality metrics are also part of the proposal, and will affect psychiatric facility payments beginning in fiscal 2018. M&A activity in this sector is always very light, but the 11 transactions we’ve recorded in 2015 are slightly ahead of the same period in 2014. And the totals for the 2015 deals, at nearly $129 million, is strong for this sector.
