Atlanta, GA 

Trella Health, a leading source of healthcare growth insights and performance analytics data, today announced it closed a significant funding round. The investment was led by Cressey & Company LP, a private investment firm focused on building leading healthcare services and technology businesses, with participation from the company’s current lead investor, Panoramic Ventures (previously BIP Capital). The funding will allow Trella to continue advancing its product and data capabilities to support a wide range of healthcare providers as they transition to value-based care.

 

Backed by two investors with more than $2 billion in capital, Trella is a platform investment for Cressey and Panoramic. With this significant cash infusion, Trella is looking to make waves toward delivering on its mission to empower meaningful change in healthcare through performance transparency.

 

“We’re thrilled to partner with Trella. They have built an exceptional company that sits at the intersection of healthcare’s transition to value-based care and the industry’s need for actionable data to improve quality and outcomes,” shared Dave Rogero, Partner at Cressey. “We look forward to working with Trella and Panoramic to accelerate Trella’s expansion plans across new products, end markets, strategic acquisitions and partnerships.”

 

Founded in 2015, Trella provides healthcare organizations market intelligence for growth and performance improvement. The company is experiencing significant growth, having doubled its annual recurring revenue and increased its team by 40% since early 2020. Its success is largely driven by the advancement of value-based care and organizations leveraging Trella’s industry-leading data to compete effectively and partner efficiently across the continuum of care.

 

“It’s really exciting for us to attract and partner with one of the leading healthcare investors in the country. And it’s a true testament to the significant impact we’re making in the healthcare industry and for the customers we serve,” stated J. Scott Tapp, President and CEO for Trella. “This is a huge milestone in the accelerated growth of our business. It will enable us to further invest in our innovative products, strategic acquisitions, data capabilities and our amazing team that allows us to bring actionable insights to more healthcare organizations.”

 

“It has been fantastic to watch Trella thrive, especially given the tumultuous market conditions over the past year and a half,” said Panoramic Managing Partner Mark Buffington. “We are proud to expand our partnership and further support Trella’s ability to empower meaningful change in healthcare through performance visibility.”

Trella is hiring across several positions and job levels to support its rapid growth.
