Financing Assistance

Whether you are refinancing existing debt or obtaining new financing for remodeling, expanding or replacing a facility, BKD National Health Care Group can help make the process a little easier. We offer insight to help you determine how your market is changing, what new technology and facilities you need, and how patient mix affects your operations.

Whether through financial forecasting, reviewing financing alternatives or studying market share, our accountants and advisors can guide you through the process of completing a financial forecast, uncovering options to pay for changes and obtaining financing.

Bond Financing

Because of BKD’s experience with rating agencies, bond insurers and lending institutions, we have helped clients obtain financing through such instruments as leases, bank-qualified debt, lines-of-credit and tax-exempt bonds rated by all major rating agencies or enhanced by all major bond issues.

We have helped health care providers issue billions of dollars in bonds over the past five years. We are proud to serve progressive clients, and we know you need an experienced team to help you plan and finance your future. Because of our experience and reputation with the rating agencies and bond insurers, we are routinely approved as replacement auditors for large health systems.

Our knowledge does not stop with large bond financings. We help our clients analyze leasing alternatives, lines of credit or traditional bank financing. We can work with your financial institution to help them understand the unique aspects of health care operations. Our tax professionals can advise you on various tax strategies related to your financing alternatives.

The next time you are faced with financing alternatives, or if you want to review your current structure, give your BKD advisor a call.

Financial Forecasting

Our clients are very good at planning their future, and BKD can help form a financial picture for those plans.

Our forecasting knowledge can help you assess the viability of decisions ranging from adding new programs to building a new hospital.

We help many clients build annual strategic plans through our plain-paper forecasting models. If you need to provide a compiled or examined forecast to a lender or government agency, such as HUD, we can prepare that, too.

Other clients ask us to help prepare annual budgets and cash flow projections. Regardless of your forecasting need, BKD can offer a solution for you.
