Healthcare
Healthcare is a large, complex, and evolving segment of the US economy – undergoing significant structural reform. Change is inevitable. Healthcare companies will face an avalanche of new challenges to the traditional ways they have done business. Increasing cost-containment pressures are forcing business owners to grow scale, embrace technology, and shift from a fee-for-service model to an outcomes-based environment. New policies and regulations will affect how healthcare is delivered, measured, and financed.
As an experienced partner helping healthcare company managers navigate and grow, Summer Street is looking for innovative companies that address cost-containment pressures, chronic condition management, and localized care coordination.
Through our partnerships, we’ve enabled companies to:
- Develop the technology and clinical infrastructure needed to collect, analyze, and leverage patient-centric data
- Implement clinical care protocols according to evidence-based standards
- Develop clinical decision support, predictive modeling, and patient messaging systems
- Design programs to boost drug regime adherence and persistence
Our healthcare team has operating experience in managed care, provider organizations, clinical labs, device manufacturing, and related healthcare services.
