ABOUT THE PORTFOLIO COMPANIES:
Chronic Care Management
Socially Determined
At Socially Determined, the company is committed to the belief that the Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) can be measured and that a new science must be created in order to glean insight from the data and translate that insight into actionable interventions which impact outcomes. Socially Determined is creating that science by partnering with data scientists, mathematicians, statisticians, and healthcare practitioners. They envision a future where SDOH risks are identified and quantified, potential interventions are scored and prioritized, and there exists an analytics-curated marketplace for community interventions. Socially Determined is doing this by fusing clinical and claims data with outside contextual data to build holistic models of people, the communities they live in, and their interactions with the healthcare system. Through that process, they are creating a SDOH risk score, a FICO score for healthcare, which will help health systems and health plans more comprehensively understand their patients and how to support them. The Socially Determined analytics go well beyond gathering data about people, and seeks to understand the most important questions in healthcare: Why do some adhere to clinical instructions and others don't? What barriers (healthy food, transportation, access to facilities) do people in the community face? What unique conditions exist in neighborhoods that are driving healthcare outcomes?

AllyAlign
AllyAlign (AAH) transforms the quality of care delivered to geriatric special needs populations by enabling long term care providers to embrace and thrive under value-‐based care. AAH's proven, turnkey model enables skilled nursing and assisted living facility operators to offset decreasing reimbursement and cost pressures by effectively accepting and managing full risk on the fragile, often dual‐eligible, patient populations within their facilities. AAH provides the organizational infrastructure, expertise, clinical protocols and proprietary technology essential to the successful formation and ongoing profitable management of a provider‐sponsored managed care plan. To establish a new health plan, AAH serves either as an outsourced service provider to, or forms a joint venture with, long-term care providers and secures an HMO license for a new Special Needs Plan, which is a specific type of Medicare Advantage health plan. AAH's proven technology platform streamlines and coordinates every aspect of care to remove the administrative burdens associated with managed care delivery. Through enhanced care coordination efforts, AAH ensures that patients don't fall through the cracks during transitions or become victims of multiple, disjointed care efforts.
