Keiichi Ohwari: on healthcare transactions 

Talking Shop Healthcare - Keiichi Ohwari: on healthcare transactions:

In Japan there are a lot of hospitals. So there are many hospitals under stress. So you know the market is apparently needs to be consolidated.


And I think, I expect the number of M&A cases will significantly increase in the future because we need the horizontal integration of providers and however I think the not only horizontal integration but also you know vertical integration is really required because in order to increase the quality of care. So you know the management of hospitals should consider such you know not only horizontal but also vertical integration.

Keiichi Ohwari, a Partner with KPMG in Japan: “The management of hospitals should consider not only horizontal but also vertical integration.”
