Crothall HTS Acquisition of Technical Prospects’ Field Service Division Broadens Footprint and Boosts In-Depth Imaging Equipment Expertise

Crothall Healthcare has acquired the field service division of Technical Prospects, a DirectMed Imaging company. Crothall Healthcare Technology Solutions (HTS) is excited about the acquisition as it broadens the company’s footprint in the Northeast, upper Midwest, and Western regions, while enhancing its imaging equipment technical expertise.

“This acquisition supports our strategy of being the full-service medical equipment service company of choice as well as the number one alternative in the marketplace to the OEM,” said Crothall HTS Division President, Jim Cheek.

Crothall relies on companies like Technical Prospects for its parts procurement, technical support, and engineer training. Both companies look forward to continuing that partnership.  DirectMed recently made the strategic decision to exit the equipment service business to focus on its core capabilities in parts, system sales, and training.  Jeremy Probst, Technical Prospect’s President, turned to Crothall because of their companies’ long working relationship and his confidence in Crothall to take care of its service employees and customers.

“This team of engineers and customers is a very welcome addition,” said Crothall HTS Vice President of Imaging Services Geoffrey Hunt. “We plan to leverage the team’s comprehensive knowledge of latest generation Siemens equipment for our clients. It will further deepen our diagnostic imaging support across all major OEM’s.”

Crothall Healthcare Technology Solutions (HTS) currently serves over 150 healthcare clients, ensuring all their healthcare technology management (HTM) needs are covered under one cost-effective, customized solution.
