1upHealth’s FHIR®-native platform designed for interoperability and modern computing is used by over 75 enterprise organizations including leading national and regional health plans, the highest performing CMS ACOs, international clinical research organizations, and over 20 state medicaid agencies. By leveraging the industry's FHIR standard, modern and open cloud architecture, and restful APIs, 1upHealth helps customers acquire, store, and interact with the data needed to power their business operations and analytics.

“Over the past decade, industries ranging from manufacturing to retail have all undergone digital transformation and now it’s healthcare’s turn. Our customers are ready. They are more and more motivated by the power of what data and interoperability can do for their business,” said Joe Gagnon, CEO of 1upHealth. “With the support of one of the top growth equity firms in Sixth Street Growth, we are at the forefront of this transformation and 100% committed to building healthcare’s modern data cloud.”

The funds raised will be used to accelerate efforts in building the 1upHeath Data Cloud across three key areas:

  1. Invest in product development and engineering in preparedness for proposed and future CMS regulations
  2. Enhance 1upHealth data cloud infrastructure for serverless scalability and open access
  3. Grow Customer and Services teams to support market expansion across payers, providers, pharma, digital health and more

Founded in 2017 and referred to as the “first true implementation of ONC’s intent for healthcare interoperability” by Gartner in their 2020 Cool Vendors in Healthcare Interoperability Report, 1upHealth has since grown 101% in ARR year over year; 648% ARR growth since 2020.

“The healthcare industry is under significant pressure to improve the quality of care and reduce per capita costs, and leveraging the power and insights of combined claims and clinical data via 1upHealth’s FHIR-standard platform is one way to achieve this,” said Lee Mooney, Managing Director at Sixth Street Growth, who will join the Company’s Board of Directors. “With proposed federal regulations requiring enhanced health information exchange capabilities, 1upHealth is well-positioned to respond to these market forces while helping healthcare organizations enhance the utility of their data using modern database technology.”
