Hearst Corporation's healthcare group, Hearst Health, has announced its acquisition of CareInSync, a software solutions company providing a real-time, mobile platform to improve patient care by enhancing communications between care providers and patients. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Santa Clara, California-based CareInSync, will now become part of Zynx Health™, the market leader in providing evidence- and experience-based clinical improvement solutions. Zynx Health, part of the Hearst Health network, began its successful relationship with CareInSync in 2012 in the form of an equity investment from Hearst's healthcare venture fund as part of a syndicated equity funding initiative involving Hearst and other investors.
CareInSync's technology enables its customers to connect interdisciplinary care teams that include hospital clinicians, aftercare providers and community-based service providers. CareInSync customers have been recognised as innovators for their deployment of the solution.
CareInSync was founded in 2010 as a Mobile Care Navigation Network™ that goes beyond traditional inpatient communication and texting solutions. The CareInSync Carebook™ solution not only provides a HIPAA-compliant communication platform for the entire care team, it offers context-specific messages around a person's health milestones, as well as evidence-based guidelines for the management and coordination of care transitions across a person's journey to wellness.
Effective immediately, CareInSync solutions are now available through Zynx Health.
