Pleasant Land Acquires, Combines Livanta & DOMA Into Healthcare Technology Business – GovCon Wire

Pleasant Land, a private equity firm with a focus on technology, has acquired and merged healthcare services and technology companies Livanta and DOMA Technologies. Livanta’s specializations include software development and advanced analytics while DOMA’s specializations include quality patient care and healthcare systems transformation, Pleasant Land said Wednesday.

Public Health Space Business

Through the acquisition and combination, Livanta and DOMA form a provider of clinical assessment services and healthcare quality oversight that are powered by technology. The resulting public health space business, to be headquartered in Virginia Beach, Virginia, will work to deliver a suite of decision-making tools enabled by artificial intelligence, thereby bringing about new efficiencies in healthcare delivery.

Commenting on the development, Pleasant Land founder and Managing Partner Gavin Long said, “By bringing these two businesses together, we have created a leading middle-market business of significant size and scale with a unique, unrestricted contractual profile,” adding, “We are well positioned to thrive in an increasingly tech-driven healthcare landscape.”

Access to Resources and Capital

On the part of Livanta, Lance Coss, an executive director with the company, said, “With rising healthcare costs, increasing provider burnout and a daunting shortage of nurses, we believe there is a clear opportunity to leverage AI-enabled decision making to create solutions that equip healthcare workers to work more efficiently and effectively.”

For his part, DOMA founder Pat Feliciano and CEO of the combined business said, “Pleasant Land is the right partner for us; we have access to resources and capital we did not have before. We are in an even better position to tackle some of the most pressing challenges in healthcare.”
