The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday edition that shares of Well Health Technologies fell sharply Monday as the company disclosed it was delaying the release of annual financial statements because of an investigation into the billing practices of a U.S. subsidiary. The Globe's Chris Hannay writes that Well Health is one of the largest providers of medical-records software for doctors' offices in Canada and also owns 200 medical clinics, including those offering primary care and diagnostic services. Its other technology products include Well AI Voice, which listens in on a physician's appointment with a patient and automatically fills out some of the patient's records. On Friday night, Well Health put out a news release that said it would delay the publication of audited financial statements for the year that ended Dec. 31. The statements had been due for release by Monday. The company disclosed that in September, the civil division of the U.S. Attorney's Office for the northern district of California had requested documents for an investigation of the billing practices of Circle Medical. Well had bought a majority share of the company in November, 2020. The company's stock fell 17 per cent on Monday to $4.14.
