The deal was completed on October 24 for an undisclosed sum.

The acquisition expands MedRisk’s premier specialty physical services footprint as the company continues to focus on providing a patient-centric approach to the timely care of injured employees within the US managed care market.

“This transaction strengthens our position as the leader in managed physical rehabilitation in the workers’ comp space,” said MedRisk CEO Danielle Lisenbey.
