Private Equity in Healthcare: Special Issue of HMPI
This special issue of BAHM’s journal, Health Management, Policy and Innovation (HMPI.org), is a response to a question by MBA students in healthcare management about the role of private equity in the clinical practice of medicine. The articles feature new research and analyses that challenge business strategies that have accompanied the $1 trillion in private equity investments in the last decade, highlight limited transparency into specific business practices, and suggest the need to monitor these market practices in real time.

Everyone in health care seems to be motivated by a personal story, and I am no different. I spent much of my childhood helping to care for my grandfather, who spent six years in a skilled nursing facility due to early-onset Alzheimer’s. He is the reason that I study health care management at the Owen Graduate School of Management at Vanderbilt, and he is the reason that I want to improve the quality of post-acute, long-term care solutions for aging patients.
