ATLANTA, May 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Streamline Health Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: STRM), a leading provider of transformational data-driven solutions to help healthcare providers reduce exposure to risk, enhance clinical, financial, and operational performance, and improve patient care, today announced that the Company has signed a definitive agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets of CentraMed, Inc.

CentraMed, based in Carlsbad, California, provides healthcare enterprises with highly regarded cost and spend management solutions exclusively in a software as a service model.
