“The merger between hc1 and Accumen jumpstarts progress for the healthcare industry by taking labs off the backburner and turning them into goldmines of data and financial growth for health systems,” said CEO of hc1, Bradley A.

Ultimately, it’s about effectively diagnosing patients and generating healthy financial results. hc1 is expanding faster than ever because we deliver both benefits at scale with a turnkey, secure cloud solution. This is truly the force-multiplier health systems have been looking for.”
