Modern Healthcare launches Digital Health brand

Modern Healthcare, a Crain Communications publication, has launched Digital Health Business and Technology, which will cover news about digital health care technology.

The publication combines the editorial content of Modern Healthcare and a decade of global digital health deal information and analysis acquired from Mercom Capital’s Digital Health Business in June 2021.

It will feature news coverage, research and quarterly merger and acquisition reports, weekly virtual newsletters, and a Digital Health Alert for breaking industry news.

“Digital Health Business & Technology offerings will serve the needs of the entire digital health ecosystem, enabling healthcare executives, entrepreneurs, business leaders and investors to determine how best to leverage digital health solutions for improved outcomes, accelerated innovation and greater business growth,” said Fawn Lopez, publisher of Modern Healthcare, in a news release.
