Fifty years ago, the United States had 75 car companies. Today, there are fewer than five. The same consolidation dynamics are reshaping physician practice management, says Ezra Simons, a co-founder and partner at Physician Growth Partners, which has been on the leading edge of consolidation in provider practices nationwide. “I think what we’ll see over the next 10 years of physician practice management is mergers of equals.” Those that separate themselves and grow are those that have unique skills to offer their affiliated practices, he says.

In this conversation with McGuireWoods partner and host Geoff Cockrell, Ezra explores how the provider services M&A landscape has evolved since Physician Growth Partners launched: While dermatology was the huge piece of the market then, the activity today is in urology, orthopedics and cardiology. He looks ahead to the next evolution: philosophical alignment among sponsors and private equity groups. “”I think what we’re starting to see are people trying to figure out engagement and provider alignment first and then where to translate that to.”
