HMA, Wakely, and The Focus Group Consultants available for meetings at the JPM Healthcare Conference in January 2024

Health Management Associates consultants, including colleagues from Wakely and The Focus Group, will be attending the JP Morgan Healthcare Investor conference in San Francisco, January 8-10, 2024. In addition to meeting with clients, HMA will be cosponsoring a reception with Shepherd Mullin as well as participating on a panel hosted by KPMG.

“While we’ve acclimated to a more virtual business world, the JP Morgan conference represents a unique opportunity to get together in person with valued clients and partners to discuss healthcare policy dynamics, emerging investment themes, and the exciting capabilities HMA has added over the last year to support its investment clients,” said Greg Nersessian, Managing Director of HMA Investment Services. “Rain or shine, we look forward to getting together and learning more about the trends that will shape healthcare investing in 2024.”

Tim Murray, a former JPM analyst, and now a Principal and healthcare actuary at Wakely Consulting Group, an HMA Company, says “The one inalienable truth about JPM’s annual event is that it sets the stage and tone for health care investing in the upcoming year…I’ll be focused intensely on how investors see the myriad headwinds facing government-sponsored healthcare programs playing out in ’24…they will surely inhibit growth but may also set the stage for opportunistic deal flow.”

The Focus Group is a strategic consulting firm working on business transformation in healthcare and private equity portfolios, acquired by HMA in late 2021. Its Managing Director Alex Rich added “our team is eager to reflect on recent deals and provide perspectives on new theses. Based on our wide array of recent projects and experiences, we’re excited to share and prepare creative strategies for portfolio value creation in the year ahead.”
