Transaction Highlights

SC&H Capital served as a financial advisor to Southern Maryland Hospital in its acquisition by MedStar Health, a not-for-profit regional health system. MedStar annually serves over a half-million patients, and operates a network of 10 hospitals and 20 other health-related businesses across Maryland and the Washington D.C. region.

In addition to acquiring the hospital, MedStar committed more than $100 million in upgrades and expansion over the next five years as a part of the transaction, allowing Southern Maryland Hospital to keep pace with other hospitals in the area.

SC&H Capital helped Southern Maryland Hospital’s founding family and management team by providing strategic advisory services that led to the sale process. SC&H Capital also provided strategies for growth, tax planning, and identification of service lines. The team performed business valuations of 15 entities and completed the financial consolidation of 18 entities.
