Genex Services Extends Care Continuum Through PCS Acquisition

Specialty network provider helps Genex expand and streamline its medical management services

WAYNE, Pa.--()--Genex Services, a leader in medical cost containment and disability management services, has announced it is acquiring Priority Care Solutions, a leading specialty managed care services and network provider for the workers’ compensation industry, from Century Equity Partners, Boston. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Since 2011, the Tampa, FL-based Priority Care Solutions has developed strong national specialty managed care services and provider networks designed to drive cost savings while maintaining superior patient care through its commitment to using high-quality providers. These services provide a natural extension to Genex’s leading medical management program, said Peter Madeja, Genex CEO.

“This acquisition offers an exciting opportunity for both companies,” said Madeja. “Priority Care Solutions shares our commitment in containing ever-increasing medical costs in the workers’ compensation industry through excellent care solutions designed to help injured workers return to their jobs. Priority Care Solutions offers a broad range of services that complement our medical cost containment model, allowing Genex to further expand across the continuum of managed care.”

The nationwide specialty network services Priority Care Solutions has established will build on Genex’s industry-leading case management and clinical services programs, which are the largest in the workers’ compensation industry.

“At PCS, we are committed to evolving and rising to meet marketplace needs,” said Bob Smith, CEO. “We’re excited to be part of an organization that holds true to these same goals and is a leader in medical management. We see our services as an extension of Genex’s renown programs, which will deliver efficient and cost-effective claim resolutions and ensure injured workers receive the critical care needed throughout the lifecycle of a claim.”
