“We have a remarkable opportunity ahead of us as we join our two companies together, enabling us to provide an even more comprehensive service offering and increase the differentiating value we provide our customers,” said Craig Meier, CEO of Medical Solutions.

Meier said the acquisition will also provide employees with greater opportunities for growth.
