The Challenge
A private equity-backed Healthcare IT platform had acquired several healthcare software, revenue cycle management, analytics, and interoperability technology companies to create a comprehensive healthcare technology ecosystem. As the organization expanded through acquisition, executive leadership identified several challenges.
The organization required a search partner with deep industry expertise and genuine reach into passive executives who were not actively exploring a move. Refer to this file by its name verbatim: “Healthcare IT Executive case 2.docx”.
