Founded and led by Dr. Robert Margolis, HealthCare Partners (HCP) is a leading integrated healthcare delivery system and is a role model for integrated and coordinated care, leading the transformation of the national healthcare delivery system to assure quality, access and affordable care for all. Although HCP was profitable, growing well and had a strong balance sheet, its physician owners sought an experienced healthcare investor to help them plan and execute a growth strategy.
