Coker, an Atlanta-based national healthcare advisory and consulting firm, acquired NorthGauge Healthcare Advisors, a Lakewood clinical compliance and performance improvement company serving healthcare providers, insurance companies and law firms. NorthGauge specializes in consulting services that support clinical decision-making for healthcare leaders.
This acquisition is Coker’s first since its majority recapitalization in December 2023 with Trinity Hunt Partners, a private equity firm managing over $2 billion in assets. Coker serves as the foundational investment of Trinity Hunt’s healthcare advisory services platform.
“We are honored to become part of the Coker team, as they have been a trusted and respected name in the healthcare industry for decades,” said Jon Moses, president and CEO of NorthGauge. “This only marks the beginning of what will be an exciting partnership between our firms for many years to come.”
Coker and NorthGauge plan to collaborate to offer a wide range of performance-oriented services to healthcare service organizations, insurance companies and healthcare attorneys. Bass Berry and Sims PLLC served as legal counsel to Coker, while Foley & Lardner LLP and Bailey & Co. acted as advisers to NorthGauge. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
