Baywater Healthcare completes acquisition of online sleep business Intus Healthcare
Crewe-based Baywater Healthcare has completed the acquisition, for an undisclosed sum, of Intus Healthcare, an online provider of therapeutic medical products and diagnostic studies for the treatment of sleep disordered breathing.
Intus, founded by the current managing director Martin Heller more than 10 years ago and based in Walton-on-Thames, has established a niche position in the UK healthcare market, supplying both private patients and NHS sleep clinics with a wide variety of equipment to treat Obstructive Sleep Apnoea.
This transaction confirms Baywater Healthcare’s desire to expand their expertise into the online private healthcare and sleep markets.
Adam Sullivan, Baywater Healthcare’s chief executive, said: “I’ve known Martin for several years and admired how he has created a very successful business in this growing sector using his entrepreneurial flair.
“We look forward to working closely with the Intus team to continue the fantastic work they have done in delivering such impressive growth.”
Mr Heller said: “Baywater Healthcare was a natural fit for my business, the company possess very similar values to ours and are committed to developing innovative solutions for patients.
“People are now really starting to understand how important sleep is to maintaining good health and the treatment model we have developed over many years is perfectly positioned to support the increasing need for these services in the future.”
Acquired by French healthcare specialist Bastide Groupe in January 2018, Baywater Healthcare supports more than 26,000 patients across the UK, supplying a range of respiratory therapies and associated services.
