US healthcare software solutions provider Craneware issued a confident outlook and said it expects trading for the year ended 30 June 2010 to be in line with company expectations. Growth has been driven by favourable conditions in the US healthcare market, the group said. CEO Keith Neilson explained, "The ongoing healthcare reforms in the US have increased the need for our financial performance and risk mitigation solutions and we have continued to successfully execute on our strategy." The total value of contracts signed during the year was up 25% from the same time a year ago. "We therefore continue to be very confident regarding the future for Craneware," Neilson added.
