Altocare Acquires MedTec Healthcare

CHICAGO—Waud Capital Partners (Waud Capital), a growth-oriented middle-market private equity firm, announced the acquisition of MedTec Healthcare (MedTec), a provider of in-home care and adult day services. This acquisition represents a milestone in Waud Capital’s strategy to build a market-leading platform in home-based care services through its newly formed holding company, Altocare.

MedTec will join Senior Helpers under the Altocare umbrella, creating a comprehensive homecare platform that focuses on serving private-pay and Medicaid-supported clients. As part of the acquisition, MedTec Healthcare and Senior Helpers will continue to operate under their existing brands and leadership.

As a former clinician and experienced executive, he brings an understanding of multi-site operations and patient care, and he has scaled organizations through both organic and inorganic strategies.

“This acquisition represents a significant step in our vision to create a leading home care platform that delivers best-in-class care,” said Jakubcanin. “MedTec Healthcare’s dedication to quality and its strong market presence align perfectly with our mission. We look forward to working together to enhance homecare services and improve outcomes for the clients and families we serve.”
