Healthcare technology and services company Clanwilliam Group has acquired Claimsure Slainte (Ireland) from Slainte Healthcare. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, although founder Slainte Healthcare, Andrew Murphy, will remain involved with the Claimsure business.

The deal frees up Slainte Healthcare to concentrate on Vitro, an electronic platform facilitating products as diverse as electronic health records, detainee case management and civil registration.

Claimsure’s hospital claims management and services solution is associated with better accuracy while reducing the cost of processing insurance claims. The software allows the capturing of patient signatures and consultant data electronically and facilitates electronic submissions to the insurers.

“Clanwilliam is in many ways the perfect home for Claimsure Slainte Ireland. Our priority is finding businesses we can partner with to deliver lasting growth, and Claimsure can now draw on the resources and expertise of the wider Group as it expands into the future,” said Howard Beggs, CEO, Clanwilliam Group. “Claimsure customers will continue to deal with the people they know and trust, with 29 staff members transitioning to Clanwilliam as part of the acquisition.”

Andrew Murphy, chief executive officer at Slainte Healthcare, said: “Following a strategic review of our business earlier this year, we came to the conclusion that our Claimsure business unit and our Vitro units have very different characteristics we put plans in place to separate out the businesses with a view to running them independently… I’m satisfied that this transaction will enable the Claimsure business to thrive as an independent entity and ensures further substantial investment in the Claimsure, Billsure and related service businesses into the future.”

Established in 2006 and head quartered in Sandyford, Slainte Healthcare employs over 145 people in its operations including Ireland, Australia, the Middle East, Central Africa and South America.
