No cost to find your broker

Selling a healthcare business — whether a medical practice, dental office, therapy group, urgent care clinic, or home health agency — requires an advisor who understands the regulatory and operational nuances of healthcare transactions. Payer contracts, provider credentialing, HIPAA compliance, certificate of need rules, and Stark Law considerations are just the beginning. A specialist broker navigates these in parallel with finding you the right buyer.

What to Look for in a Healthcare Business Broker

Healthcare regulatory knowledge

Healthcare transactions involve Stark Law, Anti-Kickback Statute, HIPAA asset transfers, and state-specific licensing requirements. Your broker should either have direct healthcare M&A experience or work closely with healthcare attorneys.

Payer contract transition experience

Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurance contracts are not automatically transferable. A specialist broker understands credentialing timelines and structures deals to protect revenue continuity.

Healthcare-specific buyer network

The best healthcare buyers — DSOs, physician groups, PE-backed platforms, and health systems — aren't on general business-for-sale sites. Your broker should have relationships in the healthcare acquirer community.

Practice valuation expertise

Healthcare businesses are often valued differently than other businesses (EBITDA-based rather than SDE, with adjustments for provider compensation). Make sure your broker uses the right methodology for your practice type.

How Are Healthcare Businesses Valued?

Healthcare businesses typically sell at 4–8× EBITDA for platform acquisitions by PE-backed groups, and 3–5× for independent practice transitions. Dental practices commonly trade at 60–80% of annual collections. Home health agencies are valued on census and payer mix. Key value drivers: payer mix (private vs. Medicare/Medicaid), provider retention (will the physicians/practitioners stay?), growth trend, and geographic market position.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a non-physician own a medical practice?

It depends on the state. Most states prohibit non-physician corporate ownership of medical practices under the Corporate Practice of Medicine doctrine. Many healthcare acquisitions use Management Services Organization (MSO) structures to work around this. Your broker should understand the rules in your state and structure the deal accordingly.

How are medical practices valued?

Medical practices are typically valued using EBITDA multiples (3–8× depending on size and buyer type) or as a percentage of annual collections (60–80% for dental, varies widely for other specialties). A proper healthcare business valuation should normalize physician compensation to market rates before applying a multiple.

What happens to payer contracts when I sell my practice?

Payer contracts (Medicare, Medicaid, Blue Cross, etc.) are not automatically transferable. Buyers must apply for new credentialing, which can take 60–180 days. This is a major deal timeline driver. Your broker should flag this early and work with the buyer to begin credentialing applications during due diligence.

How do I sell my practice confidentially?

Healthcare practice sales require strict confidentiality — patients and referring physicians shouldn't know until the deal is complete. A specialist broker uses NDAs, blind profiles that omit identifying details, and staged disclosure protocols to protect your practice through the sale process.
