Friday the 14th of February – Cloud-based healthcare software company The Patient Safety Company (TPSC) will form a strategic combination with symplr, a leading U.S. healthcare governance, risk and compliance (“GRC”) software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) platform. symplr is backed by Clearlake Capital Group, (together with its affiliates, “Clearlake”) and SkyKnight Capital (together with its affiliates, “SkyKnight”). TPSC was backed by Main Capital.
TPSC is based in Alkmaar, The Netherlands and provides quality and risk management software focused on patient safety to more than 250 healthcare institutions worldwide, such as hospitals, mental health departments, and ambulatory care institutions. In addition to strong local customers such as Academic Medical Center Amsterdam and UMC Utrecht, the company sells its software through a growing international partner network in 19 countries with North America and Australia being its largest international markets.
The strategic combination strengthens symplr’s platform, adding TPSC’s complementary patient safety and incident management, quality improvement, and credentialing solutions. TPSC’s flexible, multi-tenant cloud platform enables healthcare providers to easily configure their implementation without any programming knowledge. This flexibility is indispensable during times of budget challenges and increasing regulatory pressure.

“TPSC already has many successful US customers such as Vein Clinics (with 80 locations being the largest US network of vein treatment centers) and IntegraMed (large network of Fertility centers). With this strategic combination, we believe that both companies can accelerate each other’s international expansion“ Pieter van Bodegraven, Partner at Main Capital.
