History

On February 1, 2010, HMS' parent company HealthTech Holdings acquired MEDHOST, Inc., developer of emergency department systems. MEDHOST's software was to be integrated into HMS's hospital information system.[1]

On December 16, 2013, HealthTech Holdings announced it had combined its subsidiaries and software, rebranding itself as MEDHOST, Inc. and offering its products under the MEDHOST brand. Bill Anderson, chairman and CEO of MEDHOST, stated, "Unifying our offerings under the highly recognizable MEDHOST brand is the next logical step in our company’s evolution."[2]
