Focus: Health care cloud platform

Partnered: 2017

Helping health care teams make their data liquid and their analytics actionable.

CEO and founder Paul Magelli developed the idea for Apervita while consulting at a major care institution, where he discovered the need for seamless digitized care. However, the U.S. health care system has spent over $100 billion on one-off digital health solutions that have left organizations and their data scattered in siloes. The data insights aren’t being delivered efficiently, if at all, to the people who can put them to work.

First Sustainable Platform Of Its Kind

Apervita is the first healthcare cloud Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) that allows providers, payers and the health enterprises that support them to easily build, connect, and share data and applications. This sustainable model is decreasing cost, improving patient and clinician experience, and improving outcomes.

The low-code development platform we’re investing in allows health enterprises to collaborate freely and securely, and the ability to solve many problems with an endless number of solutions using components made to be fluid, shareable and leverageable at scale.

Apervita serves 3,000 hospitals across the country, making the clinical measurement process seamless and painless.

Apervita grew from 24 to 1,000 hospitals in one year and is quickly reaching 3,000 hospitals through their partnership with The Joint Commission. They’ve also served the VA, the CDC and multiple high-profile health systems. It’s no wonder they’re already racking up awards such as the Gartner ‘Cool Vendor’ in 2016, CIO Review ‘Top 10 Most Promising Healthcare Startups’ in 2019, and Healthcare Tech Outlook ‘Top 10 AI/ML Providers’ in 2019.

On partnering with us.

The quality of their team is second to none. As ex-operators, the team’s practical real-world approach, and product and market expertise, stands in strong contrast to pure financial investors."
