We’re pleased to announce our latest closed engagement from our Payer Services team. Serving as the exclusive financial and strategic advisor to VONA Case Management, we leveraged our leading transaction experience advising companies across the workers’ compensation ecosystem to close an investment to support the next stage of growth for the business.
Nashville, TN:Bailey & Company is pleased to announce it served as the exclusive financial and strategic advisor to VONA Case Management (“VONA”), an Alabama-based provider of medical case management services, on a recapitalization by NMS Capital, an experienced private equity group managing assets in excess of $1.5 billion.
Founded in 2015, VONA is a leading national provider of medical case management services to self-insured employers, insurance carriers, and third-party administrators. VONA’s deep team of experienced nurse case managers delivers field, telephonic, catastrophic, and vocational case management services to enable injured workers to better navigate the complexities of the workers’ compensation system. VONA has a reputation of delivering quality, high-touch services and is a dedicated advocate for injured workers.
This investment marks the successful initial outcome of a partnership between NMS Capital and accomplished industry executive Pat Rowland to make an investment in the payer services space. Ms. Rowland’s experience includes serving as an executive for a leading workers’ compensation specialty networks vendor and as President of former Cigna subsidiary Intracorp (a provider of workers’ compensation and disability case management services).
“I hired Bailey given their leading reputation and exceptional knowledge of the workers’ compensation industry. Bailey guided a smooth transaction process that has provided us with an investor that supports our mission and is enthusiastic about partnering with us to drive future growth. The entire Bailey team worked efficiently and diligently to ensure things stayed on track as well as assisting with as many tasks as possible to keep my focus on the business. They were a massive asset to me personally and professionally, and I would highly recommend Bailey as a trusted transaction advisor to business owners considering strategic options”
