Healthcare Services Sector

Charterhouse Group has had significant experience
and success in the Healthcare Services sector through
investments such as Cross Country Healthcare (NASDAQ:CCRN) (a leading provider of healthcare staffing services) and MP TotalCare, Inc. (a specialty pharmaceutical distribution and disease management company). Today, our portfolio includes companies such as The Camelot Schools (a service provider in the behavioral health and alternative education markets) and Logisticare, Inc. (a non-emergency medical transportation solutions provider).

Our firm believes that demographic trends, increasing healthcare utilization rates, fragmented markets, regulatory changes and strong demand for value enhancing healthcare services will continue to create attractive opportunities for making platform investments in this sector. Healthcare spending is one of the largest and fastest growing components of the U.S. economy and the positive industry trends are expected to continue into the foreseeable future given the growing and aging population. Significant consolidation opportunities and possibilities for new business models continue to exist throughout the industry, particularly within our focus area of services, which constitutes the majority of total healthcare expenditures.
