In this edition of the Bourne Report Deep Dive, Don Hooker, Head of Research at Bourne Partners, sits down with Aaron Olson, Managing Director of Healthcare Services, to explore the evolving economics of the autism therapy market. Drawing from their recently published research, the discussion unpacks the sector’s most pressing challenges. Chief among them, reimbursement volatility and labor shortages and how these dynamics are shaping M&A activity across the space. The report also examines the growing momentum behind value-based reimbursement models and the critical role of information technology in enabling scalable, whole-person care. With the renewal of the Autism CARES Act and increasing investor interest, Hooker and Olson offer timely insights into how providers can position themselves for long-term success in a fragmented but rapidly consolidating market.
