Fleetridge Pacific in Encinitas is a healthcare mergers and acquisitions advisory firm founded in 2006, brokering the sale and purchase of home health agencies, hospices, clinical laboratories, behavioral health practices, and medical groups from its Encinitas Boulevard office. Transaction advisory work begins with a confidential business valuation analyzing reimbursement models, payer mix, and regulatory compliance, financial modeling that draws on the same tax-basis and entity-structure expertise offered by Forward Financial Tax & Accounting. The firm has completed hundreds of healthcare transactions since 2003, guiding sellers through due diligence, buyer solicitation, offer negotiation, and pre-closing coordination with legal and financial representatives. Fleetridge Pacific's deal pipeline covers California-licensed skilled nursing facilities, Medicare-certified home health agencies, and CARF-accredited behavioral health programs, asset categories whose long-term portfolio integration often involves the wealth-management planning at Stone Steps Financial LLC. Highest-value engagements involve multi-entity healthcare platform roll-ups requiring simultaneous DHCS change-of-ownership filings, Medicare provider number transfers, and Joint Commission accreditation continuity across acquired facilities.
