MIAMI, March 31, 2023 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Osigu, Inc., announced that an agreement has been reached with Carvajal Group for the acquisition of Servinte, one of their subsidiaries, and the leading EHR and Healthcare Administration Software provider in Colombia.

With over 30 years of providing technology solutions to the healthcare industry in Colombia, Servinte has a strong reputation in the market, working with over 50 Hospital Systems supporting clinical, administrative, and financial operations.

We believe this combination creates value and is a turning point for the healthcare market in Colombia,” stated Pedro Felipe Carvajal, CEO of Carvajal Group. “We are impressed with Osigu’s technology, team, and vision, and we believe they are the right partner to take Servinte to the next level.”
“We are thrilled about this acquisition and the opportunity to enter the Colombian market,” said Fernando Botrán, CEO and founder of Osigu. “There is clear potential for growth and collaboration, and it was a natural fit for both companies and teams. We are committed to providing the best solutions to our clients and stakeholders.”
Miami-based Osigu was founded in 2015 with the mission of making the healthcare experience better for everyone through innovative solutions. Once the acquisition process is completed, the company will have more than 65 enterprise healthcare clients and partnerships in Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Central America, Spain, and Colombia. Osigu has undergone swift expansion, resulting in long-term contracts and the consolidation of a robust platform that has handled over 2 million transactions. In 2022, the company experienced a 330% increase in its annual recurring revenue on a year-over-year basis, as compared to 2021.
Among its board members are strategic investors such as Jose Vargas, co-founder of healthcare.com, a leading digital health insurance company in the US, and Bobby Aitkenhead, Managing Director of IDC Ventures, a venture capital fund that focuses on companies in the fintech, platform, and marketplace verticals in EU, US, and LATAM.
“With a TAM of USD $12 Billion, and processing over 650 Million claims each year, the Colombian healthcare market becomes a huge opportunity to deliver on our vision of leveraging the latest technologies and innovations to deliver affordable, accessible, and personalized healthcare to patients,” added Botrán, who expects more M&A opportunities to come as part of their growth strategy.
