SnapCare acquired Medecipher Inc., which provides web-based nurse scheduling software called Flo. The deal comes as SnapCare aims to expand and provide a full suite of technical and staffing solutions to healthcare facilities.
“Medecipher’s solution is a perfect fit with SnapCare’s new, expanded platform,” SnapCare CEO Jeff Grant said in a press release. “Combined, our suite of solutions uniquely aligns with facility priorities, optimizing for internal staffing and float pool first, with full visibility into our marketplace when needed to quickly fill any remaining open positions.”
The deal closed on March 29. Terms of the transaction were not announced.
SnapCare ranks as the ninth-largest provider of travel nurses in the US. However, it has been expanding. Last October, the Atlanta-based firm announced new solutions for healthcare workforce management and changed its name to SnapCare from SnapNurse.
Medecipher is based in Denver and was launched in 2017. Plans going forward call for Medecipher to operate as Medecipher, a SnapCare company.
“Solving healthcare staffing issues requires a comprehensive approach to finding and managing internal and external resources, and our combined companies will uniquely allow healthcare organizations to do just that,” said Medecipher co-founder and CEO Stephanie Gravenor.
