Mednax, the physician practice company, is selling its MedData unit, which offers certain management services to health systems, to PE firm Frazier for up to $300 million.
Nothing makes my heart leap like seeing two companies with bizarre names merge, because you can just have fun imagining what the new name could be. EmpathIQ has acquired Rivews. Both companies are in the business of helping health care providers manage online reviews and their reputations. Hopefully they aren't advising clients on what their names should be.
WebMD, which itself has been acquired by a larger information and education firm, is buying Aptus Health, which is another health education and patient engagement company.
OptimizeRx, which has a software platform that connects pharmaceutical companies to prescribers, is acquiring RMDY Health for $16 million, adding its digital health management capabilities.
CareDx, which claims to be a leader in precision medicine, diagnoses its problem and acquires a solution, buying XynManagement, which helps track transplant supplies and quality.
Michigan health plans Priority Health and Total Health Care are merging, new name probably to be Total Priority, which may or may not refer to quality of care members will receive.
