Sharecare has a vision, or is it a hallucination, and acquired Visualize Health. The former is the ubiquitous digital health engagement platform and the latter helps providers catch gaps in care that are called for by quality measures.
Health Catalyst, the publicly-held vendor of data warehousing and analytics services for providers, is acquiring Able Health, which automates the calculation of certain quality and other measures, for $27 million.
Carevive, a provider of some kind of an app to help oncology centers provide care plans to patients, raised an undisclosed amount of additional capital.
HealthJoy, which offers a virtual assistant chatbot to help consumers use their health benefits effectively, happily raises $30 million more in capital.
Cloudbreak Health, which offers telemedicine with language translations, provides a ray of sunshine for investors, raising $10 million in new financing.
Iora Health, which builds primary care clinics for the Medicare population, has added $126 million in capital to support its modest mission of bringing "humanity to healthcare". Gag me.
AlayaCare, a supplier of software to manage home and community care, is acquiring the Procura division of Complia. Procura offers enterprise software to long-term care facilities.
Verana, which does patient data aggregation and analytics for life sciences firms and providers, has added $100 million in a new capital raise, and is acquiring PYA Analytics, which combines clinical data and images to improve health issue detection.
Healthgrades, which helps patients find and schedule appointments with providers (hmmm, sounds a lot like that Kyruus company that just raised more money), scores highly by acquiring Evariant, which assists providers with patient engagement.
