Boston Scientific Divests BTG Specialty Pharmaceuticals Business
In November 2018, Boston Scientific Corporation (NYSE: BSX) purchased BTG plc for $4.8 billion, according to search results in our Healthcare Deal Database.

In the fourth quarter of 2019, Boston Scientific sold the pharmaceutical licensing royalties unit of BTG, and last week, the company announced the second divestment. Boston Scientific is selling...

Physician Medical Group M&A Recovers Quickly
Like most other healthcare sectors, the Physician Medical Group market was hit hard when the coronavirus pandemic arrived in March 2020.

Months later, things don’t look as bad as they could have. Deal flow across all healthcare sectors through the end of November 2020 was down 18% compared with the same period in 2019 (1,374 deals vs. 1,667, respectively).

Physical Rehabilitation Network Expands in California
