Medicaid Cuts & Market Strategy: Dr. Rewari Featured in Mergermarket

Dr. Amar Rewari Featured in Mergermarket: The Future of Healthcare M&A

Dr. Amar Rewari was recently featured in Mergermarket’s Dealspeak North America, offering his expert perspective on the shifting landscape of healthcare mergers and acquisitions in the wake of new federal legislation.

In the article, titled "Medicaid cuts not what the doctor ordered for healthcare M&A," Dr. Rewari addresses the market uncertainty caused by recent federal Medicaid cuts under the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" (OBBBA). While the legislation has caused hesitation among some investors, Dr. Rewari emphasizes that the fundamental need for care has not diminished.

Drawing on his unique dual background as a physician executive and former investment banker, Dr. Rewari argues that the market is not seeing a full retreat, but rather a strategic evolution.

"The need for these services continues to rise, especially in behavioral health and home healthcare," Dr. Rewari noted in the piece. "But until there is clearer alignment between federal guidance and state implementation, deal activity will likely center on smaller partnerships or targeted affiliations rather than large-scale consolidations."
