What codexIT does

codexIT (legal entity Codex TechWorks) is a U.S. healthcare-focused managed service provider founded in 2004 and headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. The company delivers managed IT services exclusively to healthcare organizations — primarily eye-care practices, ambulatory surgery centers, and multi-location medical groups — covering workstations, servers, networking, firewalls, VPNs, EHR/PM systems, diagnostic-equipment integration, cloud hosting and backups, MIPS consulting, clinical workflow consulting, and HIPAA SRA/security-compliance training. Its technology stack combines third-party infrastructure (VMware, Veeam, Dell, Microsoft) with proprietary-feeling security configurations: AI-based network-traffic anomaly detection, email-protection sandboxing across Office 365/G-Suite/Exchange, and next-generation firewalls with deep-packet inspection.

The business operates a hybrid revenue model. The core is a fixed-cost, monthly managed-IT subscription across 300+ medical practices, supplemented by professional and clinical consulting services, hardware sales (touchscreen patient-check-in kiosks priced $2,600–$3,000), usage-based remote kiosk support at $250/hour, and — following the October 2024 Kyval acquisition — healthcare data migration, validation, and archiving. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting healthcare organizations, supported by free IT consultations, case-study content marketing, and an ASOA Gold Strategic Business Partner booth presence at ASCRS/ASOA Annual Meetings. Distribution is primarily direct enterprise sales, with a secondary self-serve e-commerce channel for kiosk hardware.

From 2023 through 2024, codexIT executed four acquisitions — Intranet Consulting (Jan 2023, Utah), Practical Systems (Apr 2023, South Carolina), EyeDeal Consulting (May 2023, Minnesota), and Kyval (Oct 2024, New York City) — expanding from a single Columbus headquarters to seven regional support centers across the Midwest, Southeast, Northeast, and Mountain West. The company remains privately held, founder-led by CEO Wes Strickling, with no disclosed institutional investors or external funding rounds.
