WALNUT CREEK, CA – October 7, 2016 – Paradigm Outcomes, the nation’s leading provider of complex medical management services, has acquired the ALARIS Group, Inc.

“With this acquisition, we instantly expand Paradigm’s customer base and add flexibility to respond strategically to regions with growing case volume,” said Jim Hudak, Paradigm’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Though this deal benefits each company, the real winners are our clients, who will receive a broader range of uninterrupted services.
