Our value-based model aligns the business of primary care with the best interest of patients," said Justin Dangel, Rise Health co-founder and chairman and partner at Despierta. "We could not be more excited to partner with two world-class firms who share our vision for the future of primary care: Lorient and Martis Capital."

"The Rise team has a clear vision for how their differentiated approach and technology infrastructure can address this longstanding challenge." The partnership will allow Rise Health to accelerate growth across the Southwest United States, with a focus on partnering with providers who are interested in eliminating unnecessary spending and improving the quality of care for their patients. Rise Health will continue to invest in technology to lower the cost curve and meet the needs of its growing patient population. "We founded Rise Health because we believe that everyone hould have access to high-quality healthcare, and that empowering primary care clinicians with the tools, technology and data to lead the transformation to value-based care is the best way to break down the barriers for traditionally underserved neighborhoods," said Keith Pinter, CEO and co-founder of Rise Health. "The team we have built to date, including Dr. Mike Phillips as our Chief Medical Officer and Dr. Srinivas Bollimpalli as our Chief Operations Officer, is taking the best of what they have seen in healthcare today and bringing it together to deliver a fundamentally different model to the people who need it most.
