February 2022 Webinar – Just Released M&A Stats: Where Have Senior Care Values Settled?
About the webinar: The pandemic shook the seniors housing and care industry like no crisis possibly has before. Average census plunged across the country, as did profits, and it took several iterations of government aid to keep many facilities afloat. In the first full year after the pandemic, occupancy has rebounded, albeit slower than needed, and operating margins have taken a hit from rising costs, particularly from labor. So how have the fundamentals of owning and operating seniors housing and care properties changed as a result of the pandemic? And when should investors value a property’s pre-pandemic performance versus its current or projected operations? Also, which subsectors have... Read More »

60 Seconds with Ben Swett: CMS’ Vaccine Mandate Heading to Supreme Court
The Supreme Court hears oral arguments this week on the CMS rule mandating that staff working for Medicare or Medicaid certified providers be fully vaccinated against COVID-19, with narrow exceptions for religious and medical reasons. The rule was enjoined by a court order in 25 states, but CMS announced at the end of December that it would start enforcing the new rule in the states where it could. However, our question is does anyone know how serious CMS is in implementing this rule? In today’s political environment there is a ton of bluster with little accomplishments. We have seen the government and its agencies make bold declarations and new rules, sometimes with a wink to their...

About the Webinar: There is no question that nursing facilities were the hardest hit during the pandemic, both in the media and with a significant drop in census. Yet, providers and investors continued to buy, albeit usually at lower average prices. The sector’s reputation took a huge hit, and the talk about home health and other models grew to replace the standard nursing facility model with semi-private rooms.

The skilled nursing sector has long been the low-cost producer in senior care, and with rising acuity levels, assisted living usually can’t replace it. And home health... Read More »Schedule a demo
