Becker Health, a leading provider of specialist nursing and allied talent acquisition solutions for the health care industry, has been acquired by MedHQ, a major provider of human resources and financial management services to healthcare facilities across the country.
MedHQ and Becker Health will work together to deliver healthcare staffing and executive search services to clients across the United States, including contract, contract-to-hire, and direct hire opportunities. These capabilities will be added to MedHQ's existing HR, Accounting, and Credentialing service lines, which are all targeted to the healthcare industry's specialized needs.
"Staffing is mission critical for our clients, particularly now as the labor shortage continues to put pressure on healthcare organizations. Becker Health is a leading clinical talent acquisition firm with an incredible reputation and growing footprint. We are proud to partner with this entire team, including the amazing talent pool they have developed. Founders Renee and Dan Becker share our passion for collaboration, customer service, and innovative, technology-driven solutions which are integral to healthcare."
Tom Jacobs, CEO of MedHQ
"We are proud to join MedHQ and help healthcare businesses attract and retain talent," said Renee Becker, Pharm. D., Founder of Becker Health. "MedHQ brings the resources we need to expand our business and create more growth opportunities for our customers and our team. Our two organizations are a good culture fit. Tom and his team at MedHQ match our passion for adding value and transforming healthcare by and serving our team, clients, and partners with excellence."
MedHQ announced the completion of a strategic investment from 424 Capital, a growth capital partner that specializes in helping healthcare businesses that provide technology-enabled services achieve next-level growth, in February of this year. MedHQ now employs over 2000 people across the United States and operates in 30 states, thanks to the acquisition of Becker Health.
