Program Description
This webinar will enable the attendee to define the goals and roles that valuators should play and the valued-added information they can provide. Attendees will leave the presentation with a better understanding of how to maximize the benefit of their services beyond the numbers and how the valuator becomes part of the overall transaction process. Valuation analysts provide the fair market reality check that should be an integral part of the process—not a barrier. The presenters will use case studies to illustrate the importance to ensure the development of an equitable relationship related to the transaction from the perspective of a hospital, developer, and valuator.
Learning Objectives
After completing this webinar, attendees will be able to:
- Identify and differentiate the roles and goals of parties involved in healthcare transactions
- Establish the strategic and operational goals of the transaction
- Increase value-added information and services that exceed a dollar amount
