    <mods:title>Policy Options to Address the Growth of Private Equity Among U.S. Physician Practices</mods:title>
  </mods:titleInfo>
  <mods:typeOfResource authority="primo">technical_reports</mods:typeOfResource>
  <mods:abstract>Private equity (PE) has rapidly entered into health care markets over the past two decades, accelerating the consolidation of key sectors of the health care market, including a range of health care providers. Over the past decade (2010-2020), PE firms have invested in a total of $750 billion in the healthcare industry to acquire physician practices, hospitals, nursing facilities, and other health care providers. The entry of PE into health care markets has become a cause of concern, as research has shown that PE acquisitions significantly drive up health care prices and spending, alter workforce composition and morale, and can adversely affect patient access to care and safety in some settings.</mods:abstract>
