Vitera and Greenway Merge
Vitera and Greenway merge. Goodbye, “Vitera.” The company is now officially known as Greenway Medical Technologies, Inc. According to a press release on the subject, the two “leading providers of clinical, financial and administrative solutions to healthcare providers, today announced the completion of a previously announced merger resulting in the combination of the two companies into an innovative leader in health information technology.”
The two are one, the marriage underway.
Vista Equity Partners, owner of Vitera, acquired all outstanding Greenway common stock for $20.35 per share in a transaction valued at approximately $644 million.
The combined company will be privately held and operate under the Greenway brand. Tee Green, Greenway’s CEO, will maintain that position. Vitera’s CEO, Matthew J. Hawkins, will serve as President. Both will serve on Greenway’s board of directors.
The combined company will maintain headquarters and principal operations in Carrollton, GA, Tampa, FL, and Birmingham, AL, serving 100,000 providers across nearly 13,000 medical organizations nationwide — including healthcare enterprises, ambulatory practices, public health, retail and other clinics.
Vitera, through Vista, bought Success EHS earlier this year, which is located in Alabama.
