MISSISSAUGA, ON. – February 1, 2022 – PointClickCare Technologies, a leading healthcare technology platform enabling meaningful collaboration and access to real‐time insights, today announced its intent to acquire Audacious Inquiry, an industry‐shaping connected care platform. The combination of PointClickCare and Audacious Inquiry will help accelerate the companies’ mission to address critical gaps in healthcare and enable better care for vulnerable patients.

Together, PointClickCare and Audacious Inquiry will enable care collaboration and value‐based care solutions for over 150 million lives across the U.S.

“We are incredibly proud to join the PointClickCare family, where we see alignment with the ambition inherent in our mission – to be the single most impactful platform for transforming care,” said Chris Brandt, Chief Executive Officer of Audacious Inquiry. “For more than twenty years, we have collaborated with our partners across the country to build networks that fundamentally improve care collaboration and have supported federal and state agencies in developing and implementing interoperability initiatives.
