Health / Social Services

Hospi­tals, reha­bi­li­ta­tion faci­li­ties, elder care faci­li­ties and other health­care ser­vice pro­vi­ders are facing con­stant new chal­len­ges in this set­ting. Ongoing reform and espe­cially the con­stantly chan­ging legal environ­ment apply intense pres­sure to the indu­s­try. Today’s hospi­tal sec­tor in Ger­many is domi­na­ted by issues like how to finance necessary invest­ments in an era of tight pub­lic fun­ding, verti­cal and hori­zon­tal coope­ra­tion to leverage syn­ergy effects and expand the range of ser­vices, and cor­po­rate restruc­tu­ring by out­sour­cing ser­vices not rela­ting to pati­ents.

Our experts in health­care and social ser­vices enjoy a spe­cial posi­tion in the mar­ket for advi­sing and audi­ting health­care faci­li­ties. Our gene­ra­list approach helps Ebner Stolz stand out cle­arly from the com­pe­ti­tion. A regu­lar con­tact per­son with a broad know­ledge of health­care and social ser­vices will assist your pro­jects. And your con­tact can make use of the ser­vices of inter­di­s­ci­p­li­nary teams of acco­un­t­ants, audi­tors, tax advi­sors, busi­ness and law gra­dua­tes with expe­ri­ence in the field, not just to find practi­cal solu­ti­ons for com­plex issues, but also to point out the risks and oppor­tuni­ties of future deve­lop­ments.
