PracticeAmerica connects independent internal medicine physicians with qualified buyers — no brokers, no hospital systems, no middlemen.
Independent internal medicine practices are under constant acquisition pressure from hospital systems and large group practices. PracticeAmerica gives independent internists a direct path to a physician buyer who will maintain the independent culture your patients depend on.
Every registered buyer is a verified physician. Internal medicine listings reach buyers who want to own independently — not join a health system.
Your patient panel represents decades of relationships. PracticeAmerica keeps the transition physician-to-physician.
List at no cost. PracticeAmerica earns 5% at closing only — paid by the seller. Buyers register and browse for free.
Three-tier information release protects your identity, staff, and patients until you choose to disclose.
Seller financing structures can generate better returns than lump-sum buyouts — especially for internal medicine where goodwill is heavily tied to physician relationships.
Built for independent practices that want to stay independent. Your practice sold to a physician, not a health system.
Internal medicine practice valuations typically range from 1.5x to 3x EBITDA. Value drivers include panel size, payer mix (higher private-pay commands higher multiples), ancillary revenue streams (EKG, PFT, and other in-office diagnostics), and whether the practice has value-based care contracts. Practices with in-house diagnostics or chronic disease management programs tend to command the upper range.
The internal medicine transition market is uniquely challenging because so much of the practice value is tied to the physician's personal relationships with patients. A well-structured transition period — even a short one — is critical to preserving value and protecting the buyer's investment, though sellers retiring on a tight timeline can still close successfully with clear communication to the patient panel.
SBA financing is available for internal medicine acquisitions, though lenders will scrutinize patient retention assumptions carefully. Seller financing is particularly valuable in internal medicine transitions as it aligns seller and buyer incentives around a successful handoff — and lets deals close fast when a retiring seller needs a quick timeline.
