HomeMed provides home medical equipment services to patients within the EAH network as well as those in the surrounding areas of Eastern Alabama.

"We are thrilled to join forces with the exceptional team at East Alabama Health to deliver best-in-class home medical services to their patients and expand HomeMed's business through the strategic partnership," said Viemed Chief Executive Officer Casey Hoyt. "This marks a significant milestone in our ongoing growth strategy, which includes hospital joint ventures and institutional partnerships. We view this transaction as a blueprint that can be replicated nationwide, enhancing care quality while simultaneously creating value for healthcare systems."

Laura Grill, President and CEO of EAH, emphasized that the collaboration with Viemed aligns seamlessly with East Alabama Health's organizational mission to provide the best possible care for every patient, every time, and to do so with empathy, kindness and caring. The EAH network encompasses East Alabama Medical Center in Opelika, AL, and EAMC-Lanier Hospital in Valley, AL, with a combined medical staff of 380 physicians.

The transaction closed on April 1, 2024, with Viemed acquiring a majority ownership interest and assuming managerial responsibilities of HomeMed.
