EVANSVILLE, Ind. (PRWEB) March 14, 2018
Evansville, Indiana based Curvo Labs, Inc (http://www.curvolabs.com) today announced the acquisition of Ann Arbor, Michigan based Mendenhall Associates, Inc., publisher of Orthopedic Network News.
Orthopedic Network News, quarterly publication on cost and quality issues in orthopedics, has been published continuously since 1990 by Mendenhall Associates, Inc. (MAI).

“I am excited about joining the Curvo team. Their technical and supply chain expertise complements the clinical management tools that we have built at Mendenhall Associates, Inc. In addition to expanding the amount of data available for our clinical benchmarks, they will allow us to branch outside of orthopedics into other clinical areas,” according to Stan Mendenhall, President of MAI.
