DETROIT – Compuware Corporation Wednesday announced that it has acquired privately held Hilgraeve, a Monroe, Michigan, a Microsoft connectivity partner that recently has focused on solving connectivity problems in the healthcare, automotive and financial industries. No terms were announced.
This acquisition makes Compuware Covisint the world’s largest on-demand collaboration platform for lab and prescription data sharing. Through Hilgraeve technology, physician practices will now enjoy the ability to rapidly connect to Covisint and securely share key patient information, reducing the cost and improving the quality of healthcare.
“As a practicing physician in a rural community for 17 years, I know
that access to key information has always been a barrier to delivering the
highest quality and most efficient care,” said Dr. Tom Stevenson, Chief
Medical Officer for Covisint. “With Covisint, physicians can now receive
comprehensive and accurate information about their patients, regardless of
geography or technical ability.”
Hilgraeve has helped enterprises connect complex systems for more than
25 years and has served as a standard part of every Microsoft Windows
operating system for the past decade.
“The healthcare industry must control costs and increase efficiency,
and we have been working closely with physicians to help achieve this,”
said Jeff Beamsley, President for Hilgraeve. “By joining Covisint, we
will improve the future of healthcare connectivity and make a tremendously
positive impact on both Covisint and the industry.”
