NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--HealthReveal, a healthcare technology company that anticipates and mitigates adverse medical events for individuals with chronic disease, announced today a $10.8 million Series A round led by GE Ventures and joined by Greycroft Partners and Flare Capital Partners; Manatt Ventures also had joined the syndicate.
HealthReveal partners with leading providers, payers and employers to enable them to detect the onset of potentially life threatening health issues and intervene before an adverse event occurs. The company has developed a next generation cloud-based, clinical analytics solution, harnessing the power of evidence-based medicine as a foundation for machine learning.
The HealthReveal solution continually monitors and analyzes patient physiology and care by integrating multiple real-time streams of clinical, operational and biometric data to ensure adherence to evidence-based care guidelines by clinicians and patients. When data suggest that the patient’s care has deviated from those guidelines, HealthReveal suggests immediate and highly personalized interventions to optimize care and reduce the risk of adverse medical events.
“HealthReveal is building an analytical bridge between the medical literature and covered individuals’ phenotypic clinical profiles generating diagnostic and treatment guidance in line with current medical best practice,” said Dr. Lonny Reisman, the Company’s CEO and founder. “Our company is founded on the simple principle that knowledge saves lives and that by looking at each patient personally and comprehensively we can make a meaningful improvement in clinical outcomes, medical costs and value. ”
“HealthReveal has the potential to transform our ability to combat chronic disease. This is an exciting opportunity to combine personalized digital information with a business model that allows patients and their doctors to make better and earlier decisions to preserve and maintain their health,” said Lisa Suennen, Senior Managing Director of Healthcare Investing at GE Ventures. “HealthReveal’s management team has succeeded in this area before and now has more advanced tools to execute at an even more profound level.”
“HealthReveal helps clients reduce the cost of care by improving the quality of care; ensuring incontrovertible medical knowledge is consistently and reliably used by clinicians in providing first class medical care,” said Bill Geary, General Partner at Flare Capital Partners. “The breakthrough technology and client penetration position HealthReveal to make an enormous contribution to the healthcare system at large.”
“We are delighted to be working with HealthReveal and expect that the introduction of their technology will be a key driver of our future clinical and business success,” said David I. Cohen, MD, MSc, Executive Vice President, Clinical Affairs & Affiliations; Chair, Department of Population Health, Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn, NY. “The company understands that health care technology only matters if it helps transform data into actionable information that improves clinical care and outcomes.”
About HealthReveal

company whose mission is to preempt the avoidable consequences of
chronic disease. A fundamental component of fulfilling this mission is
ensuring patients receive guideline-directed medical therapy. Patients
suffering from chronic disease receive guideline-directed medical
therapy approximately 50% of the time.1 The consequences are
tragic at the individual patient level resulting in avoidable
consequences like strokes, heart attacks, heart failure, end stage renal

approximately 86% of healthcare costs per year due to chronic disease.2
