Medical care management platform Healthgrades has paid an undisclosed sum to acquire Evariant, a US-based patient engagement software platform backed by corporates Salesforce, McKesson and Dignity Health.
Founded in 2008, Evariant offers customer relationship management (CRM) software tailored to healthcare providers, with tools covering areas such as marketing planning, appointment reminders and medical requirement forecasts. It will be integrated into Healthgrades’ product to bolster the latter’s offering in the CRM space.
The company closed a series C round featuring Salesforce Ventures and McKesson Ventures, subsidiaries of enterprise software producer Salesforce and medical supplies distributor McKesson, at $63.5m in 2017 according to a regulatory filing.
The round’s initial $42.3m close took place in 2015 and was led by investment bank Goldman Sachs, which participated alongside private equity firm Health Enterprise Partners and venture capital firm Lightspeed Venture Partners.
Lightspeed led an $18m series B round for the company in 2014 that included Salesforce, healthcare provider Dignity Health and Health Enterprise Partners, the latter of which had led its $5.3m series A round three years earlier.
