Join us for a discussion with Nathaniel Arana, CEO of NGA Healthcare, as we explore the growing influence of private equity firms in the health care sector. Over the past decade, private equity has invested nearly $1 trillion in health care, reshaping the industry from fertility clinics to primary care and beyond. We’ll delve into the consequences of this shift, including the tragic case of Zion Gastelum, and discuss how profit-driven models impact patient care, physician autonomy, and overall health care quality. Nathaniel will share insights on economic pressures, legal challenges, and strategies for physician groups to maintain independence and negotiate better reimbursement rates.
Nathaniel Arana is CEO, NGA Healthcare.
He discusses the KevinMD article, “How physician groups can beat private equity.”
