Course Overview:                                                                                                                               This course is set up for the veteran practitioner who wants to learn more about the process of preparing his/her practice to sale and for the younger practitioner who desires to purchase his/her own practice. From the Seller’s perspective, we discuss what information needs to be gathered to share with a broker or buyer and we discuss the alternatives for selling his/her practice: broker or sale by owner! From the Buyer’s perspective, we discuss what financial documents should be reviewed as part of the “Due Diligence” process and what the focus of the chart review should be. We examine the sale and purchase process flipping back and forth between what the seller should do and expect and what the buyer should be looking for and what to expect during the process of finding the right practice to purchase. The course includes hiring an associate, protecting the practice patient or referral base and using a written employment agreement for staff members after the practice is purchased.
