Allscripts Healthcare Solutions is selling its care coordination subsidiary CarePort Health to WellSky, the companies said Tuesday.

WellSky, a company that develops software tools for post-acute care providers, has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire CarePort for $1.35 billion, representing more than 13 times CarePort’s revenue over the last 12 months and roughly 21 times the company’s adjusted earnings before interest, taxes and amortization.

CarePort represents roughly 6% of Allscripts’ revenue.

Allscripts and WellSky, which is owned by private-equity firms TPG Capital and Leonard Green & Partners, expect the sale to close before year-end.

WellSky officials said buying CarePort, which connects acute and post-acute care providers and payers, will better position the company to manage the acute-care discharge process, as well as tracking for patients across post-acute care settings.

Under the agreement, CarePort’s customers and employees will transition to WellSky.

“Together with CarePort, WellSky will establish new, meaningful connections

He is among tens of millions of Americans who have turned to a local food bank for help after becoming newly food insecure because of the pandemic and its fallout. About 10 percent of American adults, 22.3 million, reported they sometimes or often didn’t have enough to eat within the past week, according to the U.S. Census Bureau’s most recent Household Pulse Survey fielded between Aug. 19 and 31. That is up from 18 million before March 13.

Feeding America, a nationwide network of more than 200 food banks, projects a 6 billion to 8 billion meal shortfall in the next 12 months, a deficit that may be magnified with federal food assistance programs set to expire in the coming weeks and months. The Feeding America analysis estimates the total need for charitable food over the next year will reach 17 billion pounds, more than three times last year’s distribution.
