Practice Valuation
There are various points in the life of a business where it is important to obtain an objective business valuation. Examples include joint venture partnerships, adding a provider partner, and the retirement or death of a partner. CDW acts as a resource experienced at providing business valuations for dialysis facilities and nephrology practices.
New or Satellite Facility Feasibility
CDW Health Group utilizes a comprehensive pro forma financial set that takes into account multiple inputs in order to calculate monthly profitability and cash flow. The pro forma calculates the initial investment, financing needed, and aids in determining a payback period for the investment.
Business Plans
Any new business venture should include a business plan for articulating the “story” of the business (description, history, industry, competition, risks, potentials, pro-formas, etc.). Potential lenders will require a business plan. A strong, well-written business plan will allow the business owner to obtain better financing terms and could save many thousands of dollars in financing.
Program Brokering
If your decision is to sell your organization, there is a significant amount of administrative time associated with developing your “request for proposal," as well as contacting and communicating with the potential buyers. It is beneficial to allow an objective third party to implement these steps for you and facilitate the best possible bid to maximize the value obtained from the potential buyers. In addition, an objective third party can help you identify the key criteria for determining the “best fit” of a potential buyer. CDW Health Group has knowledge of the strengths and weaknesses of potential buyers and can help find a buyer that best fits your needs.
