LOS ANGELES, March 31, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- e-MDs, a leading provider of ambulatory electronic medical record (EMR) and practice management (PM) solutions, today announced that it has been acquired by Marlin Equity Partners ("Marlin"), a global investment firm with over $3 billion in capital under management.

Ann Bilyew, CEO of MDeverywhere, added, "The combination of e-MDs' PM and EMR platform with our cloud-based end-to-end revenue cycle management service creates a truly comprehensive offering.  We are very excited about this new venture which significantly improves our current product offering and helps us accelerate and drive future growth."

Jim Brady, a healthcare operating executive to Marlin, who will serve as the interim CEO of the combined business, commented, "I look forward to working with the teams at both companies to serve the needs of our physician customers across the country.  The ability to bring together e-MDs' top-ranked PM and EMR platform with MDeverywhere's RCM solution further enhances the company's ability to meet the needs of physicians and other clinicians who are facing continuing challenges and uncertainty within healthcare today."
