Private Equity and Physician Practices: What Physicians Should Negotiate Before Signing with Greg Schaefer
22:26
29:07

Mike SacopulosHOST
When a private equity firm consolidates practices under a single ownership umbrella, how does the risk profile change for malpractice, employment liability, cyber, general operations, e- e- et cetera? Uh, and are the PE-backed groups typically getting the insurance right?
G
22:51Greg SchaeferGUEST
So we represent both private equity and medical practices, so [laughs] I need to be careful here.
G
22:57Greg SchaeferGUEST
[laughs] But I think this is, you know, an advantage because we, we sit on both sides of the table of, of these tran- transactions.
G
23:11Greg SchaeferGUEST
Generally, it's the smaller ones, um, break, you know, that are trying to break into the healthcare sector, and some of these situations have been really good for me because we've been able to get them as clients when they see that this is our, our, our real niche.
G
23:26Greg SchaeferGUEST
Um, one of the, one of the places that I see an issue with quite frequently is ownership.
G
23:36Greg SchaeferGUEST

#225 Greg Schaefer: Keep racing forward when life doesn’t go as planned
G
38:01Greg SchaeferGUEST
I don't remember if that, that still holds, but it was, like, something like 38% of people DNF'd.
G
38:12Greg SchaeferGUEST
And I got a calf cramp at mile 25 on the marathon, and one would say, okay, you know, 104 degrees, dehydrated.

Like, how did you get back to it? I guess that's just as interesting 'cause you, you were struggling so much at Kona and after, and then you get the diagnosis, and is it medication that helped you or is it something else that helped you get back?
