Access Intelligence Acquires Contexo Media
Monday 06. July 2009 - Access Intelligence LLC announced today the acquisition of Contexo Media, expanding its portfolio into the growing healthcare management industry within two niche markets: medical coding and case management.
Contexo Media is a business-to-business information provider that delivers medical coding and reimbursement books and software to the medical billing industry. Located in Salt Lake City, UT, Contexo Medias products and services reach thousands of health and human services professionals in various formats including, books, software, online tools, newsletters, educational workshops and conferences. Contexo also serves the medical case manager market through its Dorland Health division, a nationally recognized leader in delivering healthcare business information for the past 50 years. Dorland Health publishes Case in Point magazine for medical professionals in case management.
The acquisition of Contexo Media fits within Access Intelligences strategic plan to invest in high-value subscription information products and services in well-defined strategic markets. Similar to Access Intelligences entrance into the energy industry, the Contexo products establish strong positions in the medical billing and case management markets that will serve as the corner stone for future product development and acquisition. Contexo Medias vast online presence, including Code-It-Right Online, e-learning, webinars and e-letters is also synergistic with Access Intelligences goal of producing robust online communities within each market it serves.
“We find the medical coding and case management products the hallmark of the highest-quality found in the marketplace,” said Don Pazour, president and CEO of Access Intelligence. “Were excited to employ our best-of-breed content and sales and marketing solutions to build market share and mind share within the community.”
Contexo Media, a new division of Access Intelligence, will be overseen by Heather Farley, president of AI’s Business Information group.
