Education

University of California, San Diego, Rady School of Management

Master of Business Administration, Finance/Healthcare

University of California, San Diego

Bachelor of Science in Management Science

I’m excited to be a part of ECG because I enjoy developing innovative solutions to complex challenges. Health reform will create continuous change in the industry for the foreseeable future, and I’m excited to be able to think about the new issues we face every day.

Mark’s strong command of corporate strategy and background in financial planning are key drivers to his success in business planning for hospitals and physician enterprises, particularly in the context of mergers, acquisitions, and partnerships. He has structured and negotiated a range of strategic transactions within the healthcare provider space, including medical group mergers, single- and multispecialty clinic acquisitions, professional and management services agreements, and a variety of joint ventures among hospitals, physicians, private equity firms, and other healthcare organizations. Mark understands the complexities of bringing together disparate governance models as well as the necessity of developing sustainable financial terms. This critical insight allows him to deliver successful and enduring partnerships for his clients.

During his time at ECG, Mark has advised clients in various business planning and strategy engagements, including leading the acquisition and integration of multiple medical groups to establish an aligned physician enterprise for a nationally ranked health system; evaluating and implementing physician alignment strategies, including professional and management services agreements, across a broad array of medical practices to build a large physician enterprise for a regional health system; and providing financial oversight to several large medical groups as they manage volume disruptions and changes in compensation due to the COVID-19 crisis.
