Valsoft Expands Healthcare Portfolio with the Acquisition of American Data
Montreal, Canada, April 15, 2025
Valsoft Corporation Inc. ("Valsoft"), a Canadian company specializing in the acquisition and development of vertical market software businesses, today announced the acquisition of American Data, a pioneer in Electronic Health Record (EHR) software for the U.S. long-term care sector.
This acquisition deepens Valsoft's investment in healthcare technology, particularly in the senior and long-term care space—an area experiencing rapid growth driven by aging population trends. American Data joins Valsoft's expanding healthcare portfolio, which also includes Vocantas, a leader in complex shift management for healthcare providers.
"American Data is a trusted leader in long-term care, with a best-in-class EHR platform and a team deeply committed to customer success. We are proud to welcome them into the Valsoft family. Our mission is to ensure a seamless transition and continue building on their legacy of innovation and service excellence."
