Gets Vizient into the hospital roll-up (oops, M&A) business.
That's so funny. Vizient snagged Sg2 and now Kaufman Hall from what I believe was the same building in Skokie. Small world.
Congratulations! Having participated in engagements with both organizations, I see this as a fantastic alignment.
Love this
Well done!
WOW! Ken, what a journey and legacy you have created. Fond memories from early Health Management Academy days! All the Best to You..
