Harmony Healthcare IT, the leading health data management and archiving solutions company for hospitals and health systems, today announced the acquisition of Blue Elm, the premier MEDITECH data solutions provider. The acquisition solidifies Harmony Healthcare IT as the industry’s most comprehensive MEDITECH data partner, combining the company’s deep expertise in healthcare data migration and archiving with Blue Elm’s MEDITECH data optimization, access, and extraction capabilities.
This acquisition addresses critical industry trends MEDITECH hospitals are navigating, including:
- Rising demand for MEDITECH data extraction, conversion, and migration services as hospitals undergo system upgrades and transitions
- Growing focus on legacy data archiving as hospitals seek to decommission costly, vulnerable systems
- Increasing need for enhanced data access and optimization as hospitals face ongoing pressure to improve quality and reduce costs
“MEDITECH hospitals and health systems now have access to unparalleled expertise across the complete data lifecycle,” said Brian Liddell, President and CFO of Harmony Healthcare IT. “From maintaining data integrity and enhancing real-time access to executing complex migration and archiving projects, no other provider can match our combined company’s breadth of MEDITECH expertise.”
Blue Elm, which has served more than 500 hospitals and vendors since its founding in 2001, brings deep MEDITECH-specific capabilities across all versions (Magic, Client/Server, 6.x, and Expanse).
“Joining Harmony Healthcare IT allows us to streamline and accelerate the complex data projects MEDITECH hospitals are undertaking — potentially cutting months from overall project timelines,” said John Mackey, Founder and President of Blue Elm. “We can execute these projects quickly and efficiently, saving hospitals and health systems valuable time and resources.”
What MEDITECH Hospitals Gain
MEDITECH hospitals and health systems that partner with Harmony Healthcare IT now have access to a single partner that can support:
- Data extraction, conversion, migration, and archiving services
- Real-time data access solutions
- Data optimization solutions
Most importantly, hospitals can now streamline complex data initiatives and accelerate critical projects through a unified approach that spans the complete MEDITECH data lifecycle.
The acquisition of Blue Elm also reflects Harmony Healthcare IT’s long-standing commitment to investing in U.S.-based resources rather than outsourcing to offshore vendors. This approach ensures the highest levels of quality, security, and accountability.
