Medical IT M&A
Medicus is no stranger to M&A, having acquired about one company per year for the last four years. Previous deals included:
- May 2021: Health Information Technology Care (HITCare).
- October 2019: PriorityOne Group.
- April 2019: CompuTech City of Orlando, Florida.
- January 2018: Information Strategy Design from Phoenix, Arizona.
Medical practitioners like doctors offices, imaging centers, dental practices, clinics, and other healthcare facilities are no different than other companies looking for outsourced IT help. However, getting a handle on compliance issues like HIPAA and electronic health records (EHRs) can be difficult for channel partners.
Still, this hasn’t slowed M&A activity within the industry with Medical IT just one of many players in the space. Here’s a list of all healthcare MSPs involved in mergers and acquisitions.
