Cardinal Health Acquires AdaptHealth Corp., Strive Medical

DUBLIN, Ohio—Cardinal Health has entered into two definitive agreements that the company said accelerate its at-home solutions’ growth strategy.

Cardinal Health will acquire the diabetes health business of AdaptHealth Corp., and, in its entirety, Strive Medical, a multi-specialty supply provider with a focus on urology. Combined, the transactions total approximately $360 million in cash, subject to working capital adjustments.

“These strategic transactions build on the synergies created by our recent investments in homecare,” said Jason Hollar, CEO of Cardinal Health. “As a natural extension of our at-Home Solutions growth strategy, they expand our enterprise-wide depth and breadth across important therapeutic categories like diabetes management and urology, further strengthening our leadership in a highly dynamic industry.”

The purchase follows Cardinal Health’s recent acquisition of Advanced Diabetes Supply (ADS). The company recently highlighted the progress of its at-home solutions business one year after its acquisition of ADS, including integration achievements that the company said were realized ahead of plan. Since closing the original ADS transaction, the team migrated all ADS volume onto the at-home solutions efficient and technology-enabled distribution network, onboarded nearly 500,000 new customers and launched ContinuCare Pathway, a unique pharmacy-to-supplier digital referral pathway program.

“Our significant operational achievements in FY26 position us to continue building the country’s leading platform to deliver simplified, innovative and high-quality care in the home, both organically and through acquisition,” said Rob Schlissberg, president of Cardinal Health at-Home Solutions.

Layering these transactions on top of previous investments in the at-Home Solutions business also expands the company’s ability to deliver high-quality service at scale.

AdaptHealth’s Diabetes Health business, which serves more than 225,000 people annually, operates primarily as a centralized, mail-order, direct-to-patient model that delivers supplies like continuous glucose monitors to support the ongoing management of diabetes. Strive Medical serves more than 20,000 people annually as independent home medical supply providers specializing in urology, wound care, ostomy and incontinence supplies.
