Value-based care companies are a hot target for healthcare investors

Investors see opportunities in VBC players: But they’ll have to play the long game to achieve financial success. VBC models don’t produce results overnight. Healthcare private equity (PE) firms and other backers are homing in on value-based care (VBC) companies as key investment targets, according to Bain & Company’s Global Healthcare Private Equity and M&A Report 2023. To control spending, providers and payers are collaborating on VBC initiatives in which physicians are financially incentivized to deliver low-cost, quality care versus a higher volume of care services. The pandemic catalyst: Providers who only got compensated under a traditional fee-for-service (FFS) payment model suffered revenue losses due to abrupt reductions in patient visits. Investors quickly realized that providers would want greater financial protection against future FFS downturns.
