NorthStar Anesthesia, one of the leading anesthesia care companies, has acquired Anesthesia Management Solutions (AmSol), a North Carolina-based anesthesia management company with more than 20 locations across the Southeast and Midwest.
With this combination, NorthStar expands its footprint into four new states and increases its team of anaesthesiologists and CRNAs to 1,200 providers caring for patients at more than 100 facilities in 18 states.
"We're excited to join forces with AmSol," said NorthStar chief executive officer, Chris Riopelle. "We know that together we will create a stronger and more effective community of caregivers focused on the highest quality of care for our patients, as well as the highest level of service to our surgeons and hospital partners."
James W. Cottrell, MD, chief executive officer, and founder of AmSol, added, "Like AmSol, NorthStar was founded on the principle of delivering excellence in anaesthesia care supported by industry leading management services to hospitals and ambulatory surgery centres. Our teams complement each other well, and we are thrilled about expanding our business together."
NorthStar Anaesthesia is a company of caregivers, founded by an anaesthesiologist and a CRNA. NorthStar partners with hospitals and ASCs to deliver a more productive and efficient model of anesthesia care. Its care team approach focusses on the provision of high quality while measurably improving operating room performance. That same approach attracted a majority investment from TPG Growth in 2013 and established NorthStar as one of the most successful and fastest growing anaesthesia care companies in America.
