Synopsis
UnitedHealth Group-backed Optum, a diversified health services company, agreed to acquire Amedisys, a provider of home health, hospice and high-acuity care, for $3.3bn. Optum's offer was selected over the deal with Option Care Health, which was terminated. “Amedisys’ commitment to quality and care innovation within the home, and the patient-first culture of its people, combined with Optum’s deep value-based care expertise can drive meaningful improvement in the health outcomes and experiences of more patients at lower costs, leading to continued growth," Patrick Conway, Optum Care Solutions CEO.
