Private equity firms have recently invested in cancer centers to take advantage of a growing business, according to a Tennessean report.
For example, Kohlberg & Co. acquired a majority stake in e+CancerCare in Nashville, an outpatient cancer center operator. Kohlberg & Co. also provided the operator with $100 million-$150 million of capital, which it plans to use to develop new centers and expand into new markets.
