Presentation Summary

In response to these changing market dynamics, medical groups, hospitals and health systems are focusing on developing integrated health care delivery systems structured around acquiring physician practices. Health care organizations are allocating substantial time and resources toward acquiring these physician practices
and to position themselves for success in a new value-based world. This presentation will focus on legal strategies and emerging best practices (consolidation into fewer entities, creation of a system-wide contracting and compensation process, etc.) that organizations can adopt to stand the test of time.

Learning Objectives

1. Discuss health care organizations that have achieved alignment while still remaining fragmented internally
2. Discuss the resulting financial, cultural, contracting, compensation, governance and compliance issues and other challenges that can result from operating under multiple entities
3. Discuss emerging best practices for documenting fair market value and commercial reasonableness within fragmented health care organizations
4. Consider potential corporate structures, legal strategies and emerging best practices to manage fragmentation and risk
