There are so many things that make human beings special, and yet nothing does the job like our ability to grow on a consistent basis. You see; when an individual is able to get better under all possible situations, they, almost as a ripple effect, go on to hit upon some huge milestones along the way. The same is wholly evident in whatever we have achieved so far, with one notable piece of representation coming from an idea called technology. The main reason why technology deserves a shoutout in such discussions is inspired by the creation’s unprecedented skill-set, a skill-set that was seemingly versatile enough to give it a spectrum-wide presence, including a perfectly-timed appearance on our healthcare block. To contextualize the statement, we must acknowledge how technology entered the healthcare space right when the latter was struggling to hold up against an obsolete structure. Using a host of ingenious ideas, the creation was successful in turning that picture on its head. Nevertheless, even after doing so, the famous medtech concept will continue producing all the right goods. This dynamic has only gone on to become stronger over time, and one recent funding does a lot to further the stated trend.
Incredible Health, the fastest-growing career marketplace for permanent healthcare workers, has successfully secured over $80 million in Series B financing. Led by Base10 Partners, the round saw further participation coming from the likes of Andreessen Horowitz, Obvious Ventures, Kaiser Permanente, 444 Capital Fund, and more. According to certain reports, Incredible Health will use the newly-raised cash to improve its proprietary platform. By that, we mean meaningful upgrades to the platform’s screening and matching algorithms. Apart from it, the company will also dedicate a chunk of the funds towards strengthening the professional resources it offers to nurses, including educational scholarships, skills growth courses and relocation support. Since starting out in 2017, Incredible Health has been hugely impactful in regards to filling the personnel gap within the medical sphere. The company’s outright automated approach means that it can get the listed position filled in about 14 days on average, a timeframe that is dramatically lower than the industry average of 82 days.
“Incredible Health is an exciting addition to the Advancement Initiative portfolio,” said Jamison Hill, partner at Base10 Partners. “The company’s mission and support for nurses closely align with our values, but what truly makes Incredible Health special is how the company has transformed the way health systems recruit talent and nurses find work. The company is solving an urgent need in healthcare and we’re excited to be a part of its next stage of growth.”
As of today, Incredible Health’s technology is well-equipped to recognize more than 70 specialties and 250 skills. This notably covers specific intensive care unit and operating room skills. In case you want a testimony for the stated capability, you can look at the company’s esteemed clientele, which has over 600 hospitals, and mind you, the number is made up from some of industry’s biggest names such as Stanford Health care, HCA Healthcare, John Hopkins Medicine, NYU Langone Health, and plenty more.
