▲ Automation Maturity IndexScored separately — excluded from overall score and valuation multiple
7.6/10PARTIAL (raw: 13/17)
Healthcare revenue infrastructure is evaluated on patient intake efficiency, appointment adherence automation, and recall sequences — all of which directly impact practice EBITDA and buyer valuation models.

Interpretation: Partial — some automation, owner-dependent gaps remain
📈 Buyer Opportunity: Closing remaining automation gaps would complete the revenue infrastructure. An operational buyer who finishes this work post-close could add meaningful margin uplift within 12 months — buyers who see that clearly tend to pay more.
Layer8 delivers exactly this. Our 90-day Automation Sprint closes AI voice, CRM workflow, lead capture, and follow-up gaps — the same gaps that suppress your multiple. The work is defined, the timeline is fixed, and the ROI is measurable before you go to market.
Top 3 Strengths
- 3 years of intentional exit preparation — data room nearly complete with organized structure.
- 94% patient retention with no single payer or patient cohort exceeding 10% of revenue.
- Office manager independently runs all operations; physician owner is clinical-only.
Top 3 Risks
- Succession plan is informal — not yet signed or documented, which buyers will surface in diligence.
- AI voice intake not deployed — inbound after-hours calls handled by basic auto-attendant.
- One key nurse practitioner holds concentrated patient relationships; retention agreement signed but role undocumented.
Recommended Priority Fixes
Actions the company should take in the next 90 days to maximise exit readiness:
Fix 1
Weeks 1–3: Formalize succession plan with legal documentation and physician successor signature.
Fix 2
Weeks 1–2: Complete remaining 15% of data room — pull secondary contracts and vendor agreements.
Fix 3
Weeks 2–5: Document nurse practitioner's clinical protocols and patient relationship handoff process.
Fix 4
Weeks 3–8: Deploy AI voice solution for after-hours intake to close the primary automation gap.
Fix 5
Weeks 4–8: Commission independent review of add-back schedule to prepare for QofE process.
