New work out using data collected via the Physician and Facility merger 6b. We find 2,000 mergers, across different specialties. There are a number of serial acquirers (some made more than 20 acquisitions); we also document health system involvement (about 40 percent of the mergers). t.co/EWSlOFP9ew

Anyone in the NYC area (or willing to go there), here’s a great way to spend a day. If you’ve seen the paper before, I promise you at least one (1) new result.
