Carrum Health recently announced an oversubscribed $45 million Series B financing led by OMERS Growth Equity. And Revelation Partners joined the round along with return investors Tiger Global, Wildcat Venture Partners, Cross Creek and SpringRock Ventures.
Carrum Health plans to use the funding to expand its growing oncology benefit offerings and scale its surgical care service lines to give employees access to the top 10% of doctors and providers across the country while helping employers control healthcare spending.
Carrum Health’s unique value-based program addresses acute care scenarios like orthopedic surgery and cancer treatment, which accounts for nearly half of total employer spend. And Carrum Health’s COE solution not only reduces unnecessary procedures by as much as 30% – leading to better patient outcomes – it can result in savings of up to 45% per care episode, according to a published study by the RAND Corporation.
The company has seen momentum with its pioneering oncology COE offering and currently partners with top cancer care providers across the country, including AccessHope LLC, City of Hope, GRAIL LLC, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and University of Chicago Medicine. In 2022 alone, the company added six new partners, including CVS, Included Health, Accolade, Rightway, SWORD Health and Virgin Pulse.
