"Professional ethics and proven performance over the long term set our firm apart."

Healthcare consultants are in demand.

Baratz & Associates has been providing significant healthcare consulting & valuation services in both the for-profit and non-profit sectors since 1985, when partner Clifford Simmons, CPA, CVA initiated the development of our firm’s service line specializing in the healthcare industry.  The regulatory environment facing healthcare providers often compels the need for determinations of fair market value (FMV) as well as consideration of related issues such as commercial reasonableness, private inurement, tax-exemption and undue enrichment.  Our firm’s working knowledge of federal and state regulatory requirements enables us to focus on services that can assist hospitals, physicians and others within the healthcare industry in adjusting to the industry’s ever-changing and growing complexities and demands.

Our firm has performed consulting and valuation engagements for clients across the spectrum of the healthcare industry, including hospitals and health systems, Ambulatory Surgery Centers, cancer/imaging care centers, other ancillary service providers (e.g. orthotics, physical therapy), multi-specialty group physician practices, single-specialty group physician practices, individual physician practices as well as medical research and life sciences organizations.  Our professionals are constantly updating their knowledge base by actively participating in healthcare organizations and conferences such as the American Health Lawyers Association and the Medical Group Management Association.
