BSR is hosting a virtual workshop on Changing Ownership of Health Care Entities in the U.S. on Thursday, September 4 and Friday, September 5 from 10 AM to 2 PM ET to explore trends in health care delivery, focusing on health care contexts (e.g., hospitals, nursing homes) that are consolidating and/or being acquired by investment-oriented groups, such as private equity firms (PE) or real-estate investment trusts (REITs).
To further the understanding of what these trends mean for patient health outcomes, this workshop will feature sessions that:
Describe more recent trends in hospital/health system consolidation; acquisition of nursing homes; and hospices by large chains
Identify the different types of institutions increasingly involved in health care over the last two decades, particularly newer players
Describe implications for patient health, as well as data needs and reasons for gaps in this evidence
Explore responses from society and communities, such as providers, employers, and policymakers
