This CLE course will provide guidance to counsel representing dermatology practices and investors when evaluating the various transaction structures for buying or selling a practice, conducting due diligence, and meeting regulatory compliance requirements. The panel will also offer best practices for executing dermatology practice deal transactions.

Description

The demand for dermatology services is growing and expected to exceed $13 billion by 2017. This unprecedented growth in the practice of dermatology offers opportunities for private equity and other investors.

Counsel for dermatologists, dermatology practices, and investors must understand the composition of the market and the different deal structures available in order to determine which structure is most appropriate for the transaction in question.

Counsel must also consider corporate practice of medicine and fee splitting, HIPAA compliance, Stark compliance, and noncompete enforceability in assessing whether to go forward with the sale, merger, acquisition or purchase of a practice.

Listen as our authoritative panel of healthcare attorneys examines dermatology practice transaction structures, due diligence issues and regulatory compliance challenges. The panel will also address integration challenges and will offer best practices for executing mergers, acquisitions, sales or purchase of dermatology practices.
