Nature of the Service

The Exit Readiness Scanner is an educational tool designed to help home care and home health agency owners understand general concepts related to business valuation and exit readiness. The tool:

• Provides estimates based on general industry data and the information you provide
• Uses simplified models that cannot account for all factors affecting actual business value
• Is intended for informational and educational purposes only
• Does not constitute a formal business appraisal or valuation
• Should not be used as the sole basis for any business decision

• Legal advice or legal services
• Tax advice or tax planning services
• Merger and acquisition advisory services

Before making any decisions regarding the sale, merger, or valuation of your business, you should consult with qualified professionals including certified business appraisers, M&A advisors, attorneys, and accountants who can evaluate your specific situation.
