Healthscope's big profit increase and takeover by a private equity firm imo should draw attention to Pulse. There's a video here about Healthscope which talks about the context of private health - http://www.abc.net.au/lateline/business/items/201008/s2988146.htm
From the transcript...
STUART ROBERTS, HEALTHCARE ANALYST, SOUTHERN CROSS EQUITIES: "I believe that ultimately close to 60 per cent of the population will end up with private health insurance. And at that level private hospitals become a licence to print money."
PHILLIP LASKER ABC Business Journalist: "And most think this will not be the last private equity deal in the health care sector."
-------------------- Pulse Health shares looking both exciting and great value right now!?!?
