ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--InductiveHealth, the nation’s leading provider of disease surveillance, syndromic surveillance, and immunization information systems and services, is proud to announce it has acquired SSDataInfo Inc. (SSDI) – a public health technology company whose team has decades of experience developing and supporting the NEDSS Base System (NBS), a CDC-developed platform that enables public health departments to manage reportable disease data and transmit notifiable disease information to the CDC.

SSDI brings deep expertise in disease surveillance and public health technology, with extensive capabilities in data integration and system interoperability, disease surveillance compliance and best practices, solution development, targeted training, and strategic system planning.

Together, the companies partner with and provide services to more than 40 public health departments and agencies across the United States. With this partnership with SSDI, InductiveHealth will continue to provide unparalleled NBS and general technology support to public health departments.

By integrating SSDI’s unique mix of broad technical expertise and a team of public health subject matter experts with InductiveHealth’s expertise in cloud hosting, database maintenance, electronic onboarding, data quality, and compliance, the company will empower federal, state, tribal, territorial, and local public health teams with a more comprehensive, timely, and actionable view of reportable diseases in their communities. This partnership will strengthen public health infrastructure and expand options for hosting, system enhancements, electronic messaging, and ongoing support.

“The current public health landscape requires creativity, new strategic partnerships, and a different way of viewing growth and organizational evolution. SSDI has long been a trusted jurisdictional partner and leader in the disease surveillance community. We are proud to combine our companies’ capabilities, bring together the NBS community, and better serve public health departments in new and creative ways,” said Eric Whitworth, CEO of InductiveHealth. “The SSDI and InductiveHealth teams together form the best mix of NBS technical and program expertise, representing the strongest group of public health technologists available. We look forward to strengthening America’s public health infrastructure together.”

“Data modernization has become a very fluid topic across public health jurisdictions. The SSDI team has a deep understanding of the complex technology needs of state and local communities when it comes to system scalability, interoperability, and hosting infrastructure,” said Pradeep Sharma and Jit Singh, co-founders of SSDI. “By bringing our collective expertise and devotion to promoting public health together with InductiveHealth, this new partnership will help drive data modernization across health departments in ways that are best-in-class from a functional perspective, while helping jurisdictions manage tight budget processes.”
