Wheat Systems Integration (WSI), a leading technology communications and security integration firm, and Health Informatics International (HII), an electronic health records (EHR) and billing services firm, both headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, are pleased to announce today a merger and the creation of a new company that will be called INFIAN.

With our comprehensive capabilities, we are well prepared to deliver on the ever-expanding technology needs of our clients,” says Infian’s CEO Beth Evans, former CEO of HII.
“The capabilities and resources each company brings to the table are strikingly complementary,” says Mike Wheat, Infian’s CIO and former CIO of WSI. “The IT services side of the business will be able to expand and better serve our combined clients thanks to the well-established operations and processes we can leverage from HII’s experience.” The two companies share business mindset and complement each other both strategically and philosophically. Wheat adds, “The work we have always done as a team focused on making a difference as we provide cost-effective solutions for our customers. We strive to provide substantially more solution at less cost and, as is our trademark, with the highest quality.”
HII has the same core values as Wheat. “Our clients rely on us as a trusted partner, because of our mission to improve patient care with systems that make our clients more efficient and save them money,” said Beth Evans. “Infian has a complete technical bench in a world moving towards greater security, interoperability, virtual computing and cloud technology. Our combined core competencies move us closer to a shared vision of what 21st century technology is and will be.”
