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.
NView Health sees its way to a fresh $4.65 million in funding for its form interview to determine if a patient has one of 20 behavioral health problems.
InsightRx drugs investors into providing a new $10 million financing round for its software that helps prescribers optimize dosing in hospital settings.
Incredible Health (let me point out that that word literally means not believable) secures a fresh $15 million in financing for its nurse staffing platform.
