TORONTO—Leading healthcare IT company Emergis announced it acquired Unikoan, a company specializing in electronic health records (EHR) and perhaps best known for the electronic Child Health Network (eCHN), a pediatric EHR used in hospitals, clinics, and physician offices across Ontario. The acquisition will cost Emergis $15.3 million initially, with other financial contingencies based on Unikoan’s ongoing performance.
“The acquisition of Unikoan strengthens our position in the electronic health records market in Ontario, adding know-how and a strong presence across the province,” says Francois Cote, Emergis president and CEO. “It will allow us to more effectively contribute to Ontario’s goal to deploy EHR for all of its citizens.”
