Lanas Healthcare Technology has entered the healthcare technology sector following its acquisition of electronic health record (EHR) supplier Clanwilliam Group. The company targets the health and safety industry by providing digital solutions that support connected, data-driven, and efficient care delivery.

Clanwilliam Group, which operates across the UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand, delivers EHR and pharmacy system solutions, including software supporting electronic prescriptions in Wales. Its systems manage the full patient journey, from booking and consultations to billing, supported by cloud-based tools and patient apps.

Founded by Howard Beggs, who also established Clanwilliam, Lanas aims to triple its business through organic growth and strategic acquisitions. The firm launches with annual revenues exceeding $120 million (€103m) and a presence in over 20 countries.

Backing Lanas’ expansion is $115 million (€98m) in committed M&A funding from global private equity firm TA Associates, alongside capital from Apollo-managed funds, Hayfin Capital Management, and Arcmont Asset Management. This financial support underpins Lanas’ plans to acquire, scale, and support healthcare technologies that enhance operational efficiency and patient outcomes.

The acquisition gives Lanas an immediate footprint in key healthcare markets and leverages Clanwilliam’s three-decade track record in EHR reliability and innovation. In May 2024, Clanwilliam added its cloud-based electronic medical record system iMedDoc to its portfolio, investing £500,000 to tailor it for private practices in the UK.

Lovisa Lander, director at TA Associates, emphasised the company’s mission: “We’re building a platform that enables healthcare professionals to harness the power of technology in their daily work and supports the next generation of HealthTech solutions.”
