About this listen

In Episode 4 of the Di Pietro Partners Podcast, Kevin sits down with healthcare attorney Nicole Martell to break down one of the most important business decisions a physician can face: selling a medical practice to private equity.

With private equity groups rapidly consolidating healthcare practices across the country, this episode explains how these deals work, what motivates investors, and what legal risks doctors must understand before signing a Letter of Intent. Nicole walks through key topics including:

  • Why private equity is buying medical practices
  • Common deal structures (buyouts, recapitalizations, MSOs)
  • Red flags in LOIs and purchase agreements
  • How due diligence works for both buyers and sellers
  • Stark Law, Anti-Kickback issues & regulatory oversight
  • How to protect your compensation, control, and long-term career

Nicole also explains how Di Pietro Partners helps physicians navigate the entire process — from early-stage planning and structuring to reviewing deal terms and ensuring compliance. Whether you’re actively considering a sale or simply preparing for the future, this episode offers essential legal insight into the business side of modern healthcare.
