After selling off the bulk of the business, the bankrupt blood testing company is now working toward the liquidation of the assets it has left and filed a preliminary plan in court last week.

2015 was a tumultuous year for local blood testing firm Health Diagnostic Laboratory, ending with its sale to a competitor and investigations and lawsuits still standing against several of its former executives.

Several of HDL’s former higher-ups, including two of its co-founders, will be able to tap into some of the company’s insurance policy to cover legal fees, although several argued that the money won’t be enough.

The newly created parent company of a behavioral health network has purchased a North Carolina firm and has another acquisition on the way in Pennsylvania.

With a celebrated VCU medical professor at the helm, a pharmaceutical startup is hoping to raise $3 million to begin work with drug developers battling two widespread types of liver disease.

The company that bought HDL out of bankruptcy is now facing its own legal troubles: An Ohio competitor, which had a testing deal with HDL, is claiming patent infringement and demanding True Health to stop performing some tests.

Facing lawsuits from the federal government and a major insurer, Tonya Mallory is pushing for access to HDL’s $10 million policy for current and former executives.

Just a few years after opening offices near Seattle and Chicago, a local healthcare company has decided to concentrate on its East Coast operations and will shutter three offices.

A longtime local firm that helps medical practices manage their billing is now under the ownership of a local family, which plans to grow the Monument Avenue business and its staff.

Former HDL chief executive Tonya Mallory has fired back at the federal government and called for the dismissal of its suit against her, which alleges that she played a key part in a kickback scheme.
