Last June, Pharos Capital Group, LLC acquired a controlling interest in MOTION PT Holdings, a physical therapy and occupational therapy services company in New York City.  In the beginning, MOTION PT was a 98-lb. weakling, representing the combination of  Brooklyn-based MetroSportsMed and Manhattan-based STAR Physical Therapy. Since then, the company has added quite a bit of muscle, in the form of Bradley & Monson Physical Therapy (acquired in October 2015), and Dynamic Care Physical Therapy in Lawrence, New York (announced on December 8). A week later, Pharos put out a press release acknowledging the additions of Greco Physical Therapy and Sports Performance, PLLC, with two locations... Read More »

by | Oct 19, 2015 8:56 am | Behavioral Health Care, Biotechnology, eHealth, Home Health & Hospice, Hospitals, Laboratories, MRI & Dialysis, Long-Term Care, Managed Care, Medical Devices, Other Services, Pharmaceuticals, Physician Medical Groups, Rehabilitation

Last week we shared our data on health care M&A by sector in the third quarter of 2015. Here’s a look at the same sectors, by share of the dollars spent. If you’ve been following health care M&A at all, you won’t be surprised that the Managed Care sector (health insurers) accounts for about 50% of the $198 billion spent. That total, by the way, is also a new quarterly record. Look for The Health Care M&A Report, Third Quarter, for more in-depth analysis by sector. Read More »

Health care M&A in the third quarter was quite robust, with 385 transations reported across 13 sectors. That’s a new record for any third quarter, by the way. We’ll have the full break-out in The Health Care M&A Report, Third Quarter 2015, due to be published by the end of this month. In the meantime, here’s how the sectors fared in Q3:15. Read More »

Deal Volume Rose in July

by | Aug 10, 2015 8:52 am | Behavioral Health Care, Biotechnology, eHealth, Home Health & Hospice, Hospitals, Laboratories, MRI & Dialysis, Long-Term Care, Managed Care, Medical Devices, Other Services, Pharmaceuticals, Physician Medical Groups, Rehabilitation

July’s combined transaction total hit 127 deals, up 2% compared with the bang-up month of July 2014, which had 124 transactions. The Services sector had a strong performance, accounting for 60% of deal volume. Long-Term Care made up 27% of the volume overall with 34 announced transactions. That equalled the record set last July for the sector, and will probably break it as more deals come to light. The Managed Care sector posted some extra activity, although seven deals versus two deals the month prior and a year ago isn’t moving  the needle very high.
