Private equity firm Knox Lane completed a $437 million acquisition of Cross Country Healthcare, taking the company private and appointing Joel Tremblay as the new CEO. The deal also combines Cross Country's locum tenens business with Knox Lane's All Star Healthcare Solutions, creating one of the largest locum tenens providers in the US.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Health.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Your healthcare staffing company faces bigger competitors as two of the largest locum tenens providers merge under Knox Lane’s ownership. Consider recalibrating your growth or partnership strategy now to offset this tightened market.
