Kyruus — a leader in provider search and scheduling solutions for health systems — announced it has raised $30 million in a new round of funding from Francisco Partners. Francisco Partners is a leading global technology-focused private equity firm with extensive experience in healthcare IT.

This round of funding comes on the heels of a $42 million Series D round of funding that the company closed late last year. And at a time when the Kyruus platform has been critical to the ability for healthcare organizations to facilitate patient access during the COVID-19 pandemic, this round of funding will propel the company’s plans to expand its platform, broaden its health systems partnerships, and expand to new market segments.

Kyruus is known for pioneering the patient access category within healthcare IT and has maintained its market leadership with an experienced, mission-driven team, award-winning platform, premium partner network, and proven customer impact.

And Kyruus now serves 600 hospitals and over a quarter of a million healthcare providers across the US. Through its enterprise provider data management and patient access platform, Kyruus enables healthcare organizations to understand their care networks like never before. Plus it connect consumers with the right care via modern search and scheduling experiences.

Francisco Partners’ investment brings Kyruus’ total funding to over $155 million. And the firm’s Co-President Ezra Perlman — who focuses on investments in the healthcare IT sector — will serve on Kyruus’ Board of Directors, joining existing investors from Venrock, Highland Capital Partners, and Providence Ventures as well as industry veterans from Partners HealthCare and athenahealth.
