HealthCare Appraisers

What HealthCare Appraisers does

HealthCare Appraisers, Inc. is a Boca Raton, Florida-based professional services firm founded in 2000 that specializes in independent fair market value (FMV) and commercial reasonableness opinions for the healthcare industry. Its core services span compensation valuation (employment, on-call, telemedicine, service line management, and consulting arrangements), healthcare business valuation, real estate and capital asset valuation, intellectual property and intangible asset valuation, transaction advisory, hospital-physician alignment, value-based care plan design, HIPAA compliance, payment integrity, risk assessment, and disputes support. The firm is organized around a 101–250 person healthcare-specialist team whose opinions are designed to withstand regulatory scrutiny under the Stark Law and Anti-Kickback Statute.

The firm's underlying technology consists of a suite of calculator-based tools branded Automated FMV Solutions™, including the Provider Production Calculator™ for collections-based compensation due diligence and the Physical Therapy Calculator™ for clinic-specific valuation multiples. These calculators combine regulatory and valuation methodology with structured financial inputs to produce defensible FMV opinions rapidly, functioning as a cost-efficient alternative to traditional bespoke engagements. A Fixed Fee Partnership program further packages compensation valuation projects under a customized monthly subscription.

HealthCare Appraisers generates revenue through three streams: traditional project-based professional valuation engagements, a subscription-style Fixed Fee Partnership covering the majority of compensation valuation work, and usage-based access to its Automated FMV Solutions calculators. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales, with engagements sourced through direct business development, referrals from healthcare-focused law firms, and outreach to healthcare organizations navigating regulatory compliance. In 2025, HealthCare Appraisers was acquired by Stout and integrated into Stout's Valuation Advisory practice as its healthcare valuation team.
