Anjana D.Patel, JD, discusses management service organizations’ role in a private-equity transaction.
“A management service organization, or MSO, is an entity that owns all of the nonclinical assets and nonclinical personnel that provide back-office management services to a medical practice,” Patel, a member of the firm in the health care and life sciences practice of Epstein Becker Green, told Healio.
Patel states that there are many states that have laws that restrict medical practices to only being owned by doctors. Private equity firms cannot directly own medical practices.
