According to Health Leaders Media magazine 78% of health care leaders say they have deals underway or will be exploring deals in the next 12 to 18 months.
This is occurring due to health care reform, the 2012 election, new delivery models – ACOs and PCMH. As a result, hospitals, health systems and physician practices are being forced to consolidate or form partnerships. Additionally, as private equity investors look for new opportunities in the global markets health care continues to emerge as bright spot. By attending the World Congress Annual Leadership Summit on Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) in Health Care attendees will have an opportunity to hear from executives representing providers, plans, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies and leaders of private equity firms, investment banks and commercial lenders on how the latest health care trends are changing the types of deals being executed, the financial and legal challenges that have to be overcome and the results to date on deals that have been successfully executed.

For the exponentially growing specialty benefits sector, health care reform presents challenges as policies and their impact remain unclear. However, the opportunities ancillary products present to both health plans and insurance brokers are invaluable, particularly in an evolving health care landscape. While ancillary products will serve as a tool for traditional health plans to differentiate themselves and maximize their competitive edge, they will present insurance brokers with new revenue streams during a time where they may lose other revenue streams. Employers will consider voluntary benefits as a means to supplement or even replace their employee benefit packages as well as improve the health and well being of their employees. This unique Summit convenes health plans, non medical insurance carriers and brokers to discuss how to leverage voluntary and other specialty products to maximize competitive edge and profitability and meet the needs of a consumer driven market in the wake of health care reform.
