Strategic Acquisition Strengthens Knack RCM's Leadership in Specialty RCM Services
WOODBRIDGE, N.J., March 11, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Knack RCM, a leader in tech-enabled, end-to-end, and customizable revenue cycle management (RCM) services, today announced the acquisition of PPM Partners, a leading RCM provider with deep expertise in the anesthesia sector. Founded in 1991, with offices in Montgomery, Alabama, PPM Partners provides complete anesthesia billing and practice management services.
The acquisition underscores Knack RCM's commitment to strategic growth, further solidifying its position as a specialized RCM services partner to independent and multispecialty physicians, eye care providers, anesthesia practices, DME/HME suppliers, and ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs).
