Wauwatosa medical informatics company acquired

TeraMedica Inc., a Wauwatosa-based medical informatics company, has been acquired by FUJIFILM Medical Systems U.S.A. Inc. The announcement was made today by FUJIFILM, a Stamford, Conn.-based diagnostic imaging product provider with approximately 6,000 North and South American employees.

TeraMedica’s Wauwatosa location will remain in operation, according to FUJIFILM spokeswoman Diane Rainey, and all 40 employees will stay on with the company. It will now, however, be known as FUJIFILM TeraMedica Inc.

FUJIFILM said the acquisition will allow it to offer the market a leading Vendor Neutral Archiving (VNA) technology.

Together, we will be able to deliver medical informatics solutions that acquire, analyze, interpret and present patient data in ways that are meaningful for providers in the most challenging environments.”

TeraMedica is an established leader in VNA technology and recently received the VNA/Image Archive KLAS Category Leader Award for 2014 as part of the Best in KLAS Report. The company enables cross-departmental image content sharing of patient data from disparate health care IT applications, while maintaining the integrity of the original data stored.
