While overall activity was subdued due to high interest rates and regulatory scrutiny, dental care saw a 10.3% increase in deals. The report highlights the prevalence of 'add-on acquisitions'—which accounted for nearly 60% of deals—as a strategy to avoid antitrust scrutiny. PESP notes risks associated with this model, including higher prices, reduced quality of care, and increased bankruptcies in physician practice management. The document also identifies a growing trend of private equity firms using joint ventures with nonprofit health systems to expand market access. It concludes by urging state and federal policymakers to lower reporting thresholds for mergers and acquisitions and implement robust change-of-ownership regulations.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"pestake-000053#summary","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},"key_insights":[{"text":"Private equity healthcare deal activity in the US decreased slightly in 2024, with PESP identifying 1,049 unique deals, representing a 7.6% drop from the 1,135 deals tracked in 2023.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"pestake-000053#insight-1","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"Add-on acquisitions, where a private equity firm uses a platform company to acquire other companies, were the most common deal type in 2024, comprising nearly 60% of all tracked deals.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"pestake-000053#insight-2","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"Dental care was the most active subsector in 2024 with 161 deals, marking a 10.3% increase over 2023.
