Thinking of Selling Your Health Care Business or Practice in Colorado? What You Need to Know in 2022.

Health care is an industry that is constantly growing and evolving as new technologies and discoveries change treatments and care. This reality is truer than ever as the world has seen during the recent COVID-19 health care crisis.

If you are looking to sell your health care business, the conditions may be better than ever. Why? Well, health care is a fast-growing industry. The demand for health care professionals is expected to increase by 16% over the next 10 years.

Even during the previous recession, the health care sector recovered faster than many others. Buyers look at that positive history and know that if any industry has the potential to do well, it’s health care.

It’s a great time to consider selling your health care business. Whether you are interested in  retiring or simply want to explore new business opportunities, now is an ideal time to sell your health care business.

The trends fueling the health care market.

Beyond the impact of the pandemic on health care businesses, there are even more reasons why now is an ideal time to sell your business.

First, aging baby boomers continue to spike demand for health care. The number of older adults is expected to outnumber children for the first time in U.S. history. This population reversal is anticipated to happen by 2030.

Additionally, the need for innovations for the ever-growing population of seniors continues. AARP reports that fewer seniors are choosing to live in nursing homes, meaning the need for high-quality in-home care will continue to rise. These changes mean that health care providers will be tasked with continuing to find new ways to meet the needs of today’s older adults.

Second, the demand for mental health services has been on the rise due to the pandemic. More Americans need and are seeking treatment for depression and anxiety. The American Psychological Association (APA) conducted a survey in 2020 that found increases in treating anxiety disorders (84%, up from 74%) and depressive disorders (72%, up from 60%).

People recognize the toll the pandemic has taken on their well-being. As a result, many are placing more emphasis on self-care and are prioritizing work-life balance. This is resulting in an increased interest surrounding massage clinics and massage franchises, as well as a range of other holistic approaches to health.

The pandemic has also normalized telehealth services, making it more mainstream and accessible.

Finally, health care is experiencing many mergers and acquisitions. The benefit of this is it improves the patient experience and increases innovation. It also makes it a great time to sell your health care company. A great example is hospitals acquiring electronic health records companies, which allows the hospitals to streamline electronic medical records.
