According to experts mergers and acquisitions returned to typical levels this past year. This week’s Friday Five highlights the healthcare acquisitions of 2022 we found most notable.

June: Oracle buys Cerner ($28.3B)

On December 20, 2021, Oracle Corporation (@oracle) and Cerner Corporation (@Cerner) jointly announced an agreement for Oracle to acquire Cerner through an all-cash tender offer for $95.00 per share, or approximately $28.3 billion in equity value. Cerner is a provider of digital information systems used within hospitals and health systems to enable medical professionals to deliver better healthcare to individual patients and communities. The deal closed on June 8, 2022.

Amazon (@amazonnews) and One Medical (@onemedical) announced that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement under which Amazon will acquire One Medical.
