NantHealth, a subsidiary of NantWorks, has completed the acquisition of Harris Corporation’s commercial Healthcare Solutions business, a clinical systems integration innovator. Harris retained its government healthcare services business.
NantHealth’s existing cOS, eviti and omics platforms, combined with Harris’ FusionFX suite of products, delivers on the promise of whole health systems integration and revolutionizes the patient-clinician experience by bringing molecular medicine insights directly to the point-of-care.
The FusionFX platform provides next-generation health information exchange, interoperability, and insights to healthcare organizations around the world.“The acquisition of Harris Healthcare Solutions, our largest transaction to date, brings unique and proven technology with a large global footprint that significantly furthers our stated goal to improve patient outcomes by efficiently providing physicians with integrated, clinically relevant patient-centric information in real-time,” said Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, Executive Chairman and Founder of NantHealth. “At the same time, we have added an extensive client base of leading clinical and health IT innovators across North America and Europe, as well as a talented and experienced leadership team. The transaction represents a strategic step toward realizing our vision of providing personalized, precision medicine across the continuum of care.”
The FusionFX platform provides next-generation health information exchange, interoperability, and insights to healthcare organizations around the world.

Its scalable platform eliminates redundancies and administrative legwork and improves quality of care by streamlining access to the right information at the right time.
