067 Part 1 of 3 Short Term Capital Dr. Eric Bricker, MD

Private equity is buying highly profitable practices using an aggregator model to improve efficiency and management.  This is done to the detriment of younger physicians who are not equity partners at the time of the sale. They will also not be building a legacy or doing the best care as PE’s focus is on return on investment and capital allocation.
