So there’s actually a legal reason why medical practices that are backed by PE are physician owned: because state law usually requires a medical practice to be owned by physicians. State law does not, however, prohibit the physician who owns the medical practice from taking a bunch of PE money and, in exchange, signing a contract that gives the PE fund complete control over the medical practice as well as the right to collect 100% of the profits. So when they say “we are physician owned” all they are saying is “we are aware of the law and found a loophole to get around it.”

All hospitals and insurance companies (and schools, prisons, utilities for that matter) should be not for profit. If we can't have free Healthcare, at the very least, give it to us at cost.

I am a pharmacist in ATL and have never able to reach the Apollo docs to resolve Rx issues because the number on their Rxs are to the business office. Go figure.

This has been good for ER patients. Took my wife to the ER the other day and haven’t had a better experience with a PeaceHealth ER in my life.

OMFG thank you for this. I’m a securities law paralegal. I’ve been struggling with the need to bite my tongue when I hear doctors blame private equity (which is a valid thing to do), but without mentioning how often the call is coming from inside the house.

As a travel nurse I worked a contract at the hospital. This hospital is great and it is sad to see the route they have taken. I have nothing but love for the employees.

Are the doctors that sell to private equity the same that perform the insurance denial peer reviews?
