As with many other valuation applications and techniques, lost profits claims in the healthcare sector carry subtle but important differences from the same non-healthcare applications. Depending on the size and sophistication of the practice claiming lost profits this analysis may closely resemble that of a lost earnings claim or go so far as to include the recruiting and training costs of replacing lost employees.

In "Lost Profits Damages in Medical Practices," Part 7 of BVR's Online Symposium on Healthcare Valuation, experts Jim Lloyd and Mark Dietrich, contributing author and editor of the AHLA/BVR Guide to Healthcare Valuation, respectively, will examine the methods by which lost profits claims are analyzed and determined for physician practices.
