Why Home Health Owners Choose Mertz Taggart
We know this space
Home health isn’t just one of many industries we touch. It’s a core part of what we do. That matters because buyers in this space aren’t looking at your business in a vacuum. They’re thinking about reimbursement exposure, leadership depth, compliance, margins, referral relationships, and growth potential.
You need an advisor who understands how those factors show up in a real transaction.

We run a competitive process that creates leverage
A lot of home health agency owners only go through this once. The process you run has a direct impact on the outcome.
We run a disciplined competitive process designed to bring the right buyers to the table, create real pressure in the market, and improve both value and terms.

We educate first
Not every owner who reaches out is ready to sell, and that’s fine. We believe owners should understand how the process works, what their business may be worth, and what buyers are likely to focus on before they make any big decisions.
You don’t need pressure. You need clarity.

We stay close to the deal
Getting a strong indication of interest is one thing. Getting the right deal closed is another.
We stay involved throughout the process, from buyer conversations to management meetings to diligence and negotiation, because that’s where deals can either hold together or start to drift. Our job is to keep momentum up, reduce surprises, and protect the outcome.
Know Where You Stand Before You Go to Market
You don’t need to be ready to sell to start asking the right questions. In fact, the best outcomes often start earlier, when there is still time to understand what your agency may be worth, what buyers are likely to focus on, and what may need attention before a process begins.
For a home health agency, that usually means looking closely at payer mix, referral concentration, compliance, leadership depth, margins, and growth opportunities. The more clarity you have before going to market, the stronger your position tends to be once buyers start taking a closer look.
That’s exactly why we created the Value Accelerator Program. It helps owners get a clearer picture of value, identify gaps, and understand what it may take to get closer to their number before going to market.
