ASHVILLE, Tenn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Prime Health Services, one of the nation’s largest workers’ compensation, group health, and first party auto liability PPO networks, is pleased to announce it has acquired majority interest in Applied Metrics (a holding of BRM Global Inc.).

“Prime Health Services has taken the next evolutionary step in its growth by acquiring majority interest in Applied Metrics.
