Last month, Nashville-based SpecialtyCare, a leading provider of outsourced operating room clinical services, and Denver-based ProNerve, an intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) company, announced that SpecialtyCare has signed an asset purchase agreement to acquire ProNerve. Upon completion of the transaction, ProNerve’s nearly 200 associates and almost 350 customers in 31 states will become part of SpecialtyCare. This transaction will significantly extend SpecialtyCare’s capacity to improve the delivery of healthcare, most particularly as it relates to ensuring patient health and safety during surgeries in which neural integrity is often at risk. The acquisition positions SpecialtyCare as the clear market leader in the IONM space and provides the company with an expanded geographic footprint.
