Prosperity Behavioral Health and Vertex Healthcare Services, two leading providers of financial services and solutions to the behavioral healthcare industry, announced today that they have merged. This union significantly increases the depth and breadth of available services, creating a seamless end-to-end solution for clients seeking revenue cycle management, accounting and vendor management, data analytics and reporting, and M&A transaction support services. The combination will also allow accelerated development of proprietary technology initiatives. The combined company will serve a national customer base with comprehensive resources on both coasts.

Prosperity and Vertex will combine the best practices of both organizations to more efficiently handle billing, collections, analytics and financial services for a national client base. "When we started Vertex four years ago, our goal was to exceed our customers' expectations for service, support and results," Kyle McHenry, CEO of Vertex, remarked. "I'm excited to join with Prosperity to expand the scope of services available to our clients and to share knowledge, data and processes across our combined team."

Prosperity CEO, Greg Keilin, said, "We are always on the lookout for opportunities to partner with like-minded companies seeking to provide best-in-class service to clients. We are thrilled to be joining forces with Vertex to improve the quality and availability of critical business support services and to serve behavioral and mental healthcare providers throughout their organizational lifecycle."
