The Valuation of Intangible Assets

Healthcare Valuation Series - Part II of IV

The four-part HC Topics Series: Healthcare Valuation will examine various aspects of the process by which healthcare enterprises, assets, and services are appraised. Part I will discuss the application of the fair market value and commercial reasonableness standards by various regulatory agencies; Part II will address the valuation of intangible assets; Part III will address the valuation of services; and, Part IV will conclude with a discussion of several of the more complex aspects of valuation related to the acquisition of physician practice enterprises (and service lines); assets (both intangible and tangible); and, services, by exempt organizations. This HC Topics Series is excerpted from the book authored by HCC Chief Executive Officer, Bob Cimasi, entitled, "Healthcare Valuation: The Financial Appraisal of Enterprises, Assets, and Services," to be published by John Wiley & Sons later this year.
