West Perth, Australia – APM Group, a global health and human services company, recently announced it has entered into an agreement to acquire direct-to-employer healthcare provider Medcor.
The deal builds on APM’s previously announced acquisition of WorkCare, an occupational health, wellness and absence management company.
Together with the expansion of Assure, the businesses establish a scaled occupational health and workforce wellbeing platform across North America.
WorkCare specialises in employer-focused occupational health, combining workforce health programs, injury management and technology-enabled clinical services to support large and complex workforces.
Medcor is a pioneer in onsite healthcare delivery, providing employers and their employees direct access to clinical services through onsite medical teams, mobile health programs and telehealth solutions.
Together, WorkCare, Medcor and Assure will bring together more than 2,000 team members across 450 sites, with a presence in every US state and territory and every Canadian province. The combined platform offers national reach, technology-enabled complementary services and deeper expertise to improve workforce health, participation and productivity.
“Employers increasingly want a trusted partner that can support the full workforce health journey. By bringing together WorkCare, Medcor and Assure, we are creating one of North America’s most comprehensive occupational health and workforce wellbeing platforms. Together, we can help organisations build healthier, safer and more productive workforces while extending our impact and continuing to enable better lives. Importantly, as part of APM’s global network, we can increasingly support customers across multiple markets, bringing together local delivery, international expertise and shared innovation to improve workforce outcomes at scale,” said Michael Anghie, APM Group Chief Executive Officer.
“WorkCare has always believed prevention, early intervention and coordinated care deliver better outcomes. Joining APM brings together complementary capabilities and creates new opportunities to improve workforce participation, wellbeing and long-term health outcomes across North America,” said Peter P. Greaney, M.D., Founder and Chief Medical Officer of WorkCare.
Philip Seeger, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Medcor, said: “For more than four decades, Medcor has helped employers improve workforce health through innovation, clinical excellence and conflict-free customer experience. APM shares those values and brings additional scale, capability and global experience, creating greater opportunities for our clients, employees and communities.”
