Understanding Legal, Tax, and Valuation Considerations for MSO-PC Structures

Managed Service Organization—Professional Corporation (“MSO-PC”) models are common in healthcare, particularly in states with laws prohibiting the corporate practice of medicine (“CPOM”). The popularity of such models has grown with the increased financial investment in healthcare enterprises. Founders and providers often face confusion regarding legal and regulatory requirements, tax implications, and determining the fair market value (“FMV”) of the various services within the MSO-PC structure.

Join the legal and financial experts of King & Spalding and Withum as we address the complexities of MSO-PC structures, the current market and enforcement trends, and how to ensure your practice is compliant from a legal, tax, and FMV standpoint. We will discuss the legal framework applicable to MSO-PC arrangements, including an overview of the typical structures, common areas of concern and scrutiny, and examples of enforcement. We will also discuss tax considerations to include consolidation, QSBS implications and state nexus. Finally, we will discuss the regulatory requirements of FMV and commercial reasonableness, the scope of services in a management services agreement (“MSA”), the process of valuing an MSO-PC arrangement, and strategic uses for the MSO-PC model.
