Keragon, an AI-based HIPAA-compliant automation platform for healthcare, officially launched out of stealth and revealed that it raised $3 million in pre-seed funding. The pre-seed funding round was co-led by Focal and Afore, followed by 25 Madison Health – Lifepoint Health.
This is the first no-code workflow automation platform designed specifically for the US healthcare industry. It is currently utilized by practices and clinics, digital health startups, hospitals, and NASDAQ-listed companies across the 50 states.
This platform enables instant integration of various popular software used by healthcare practitioners (such as EHRs, healthcare CRMs, AI medical scribes, appointment scheduling & billing software). And it has built-in personalized AI assistants that fuel faster automation with less hassle.
Keragon enables healthcare professionals without a technical background to create powerful HIPAA-compliant automation that can save significant operational costs, improve clinical efficiency, improve patient care, and reduce physician burnout. With 100+ pre-built healthcare integrations, multiple data transformation helpers, and advanced error debugging capabilities, it is set to accelerate the digital transformation of healthcare.
The typical use cases include:
- Breaking down the wall between the clinical & marketing teams, with a 2-way synchronization between the EHR and the marketing tool suite (CRM, forms, ads)
- Reducing cognitive workload by triaging appointments booked in real-time, and then notifying only the relevant stakeholders in the communication tools of their choice (SMS, email, Slack, or Microsoft Teams)
- Facilitating patient data interoperability between different healthcare software systems that currently don’t talk to each other
Keragon has a goal of improving healthcare’s operational efficiency while promoting the use of security best practices for all software vendors that handle sensitive patient data. And it has been certified as both SOC 2 Type 2 & HIPAA compliant by external auditors.
KEY QUOTES:
“We used Zapier for many of our integrations, but when it came to working with protected health information we had to find a different solution for HIPAA compliance. Keragon has filled that gap really well! Their team has been great to work with and super helpful in getting our integrations up and running!”
- Mark Callahan, Head of Engineering at BreatheSuite and a customer of Keragon
“Although healthcare is under pressure to cut costs and improve efficiency, automation adoption remains slow. Keragon’s secure, HIPAA-compliant platform with hundreds of pre-built integrations is the change the industry has long sought for. From streamlining patient intakes to personalized care delivery, healthcare can now benefit from the leaps in software innovation that have transformed other sectors”
- Daniel Darling, Managing Partner at Focal Ventures and an investor in Keragon
“We are thrilled to unveil what we’ve been developing behind the scenes with our design partners for the last two years. Our privacy-first platform enables U.S. healthcare professionals to integrate their existing tools and streamline their manual processes, without any coding. With a commitment to lead the digital transformation of healthcare by making automations accessible to all, our mission is to profoundly advance the experiences and outcomes for both — practitioners and patients.”
