"Continued reimbursement pressure and consolidation in healthcare cause more and more private practices to be acquired. When that happens, more physicians lose control of their practices and the full value of their efforts," said Dr. Jason Jundt, a partner at Oregon Vascular Specialists and co-founder of LifeFlow. "We saw this happen to colleagues in dermatology, ophthalmology, and other specialties. Our goal is to help excellent physicians keep control of their practices and fully benefit from them."
