Qualified Health Raises $125M to Scale AI Across Health Systems
Qualified Health, an enterprise AI platform for healthcare organizations, raised $125 million in Series B funding led by New Enterprise Associates. The company plans to expand its infrastructure and deepen partnerships with health systems deploying AI across clinical and administrative workflows.
The funding reflects demand from hospitals and health systems moving beyond isolated AI pilots toward enterprise-wide deployment. Qualified Health works with major systems including Mercy, Emory Healthcare, University of Rochester Medicine, Jefferson Health, and the University of Texas System.
Measured Results From Early Deployments
The University of Texas Medical Branch reported more than $15 million in run-rate impact within six months after deploying the platform. The gains came from integrating data systems, deploying AI assistants, and automating workflows.
Qualified Health's platform currently supports more than 500,000 users across health systems representing approximately 7 percent of U.S. hospital revenue.
Focus on Safety and Organizational Change
The company emphasizes that successful AI adoption requires more than technology. Health systems need clinician engagement, workflow redesign, and staff training to realize benefits.
The platform includes auditability, clinician oversight, and continuous monitoring to ensure safe deployment. Qualified Health positions itself as helping systems improve patient outcomes, reduce costs, and ease administrative burdens on clinical staff.
What Health System Leaders Say
Peter McCaffrey, Chief AI & Digital Officer at University of Texas Medical Branch: "Their team brings deep expertise and a real willingness to dive deep alongside our clinicians, operators, and leadership teams. Together, we've been able to focus on the highest-priority opportunities, move quickly from idea to implementation, and stay ahead of the curve. The ROI has already exceeded expectations."
Byron Yount, Chief Data & AI Officer at Mercy: "AI allows us to simplify complex workflows, anticipate patient needs earlier and give caregivers the time and clarity they need to provide high-quality care. Our partnership with Qualified Health accelerates this transformation, helping us turn AI into a meaningful path for better outcomes and a better daily experience for the people we serve."
Lisa Nelson, Chief Applications Officer at University of Rochester Medicine: "We're able to harness their infrastructure and discipline as we work toward a system-wide, centralized strategy, where AI is deployed while preserving and building upon our top-quality patient experience and health outcomes."
What Investors See
Mohamad Makhzoumi, Co-CEO of New Enterprise Associates, said the firm views Qualified Health as foundational infrastructure for healthcare AI, similar to how Salesforce became foundational for sales organizations and Workday for HR.
Jared Kesselheim, Managing Partner at Transformation Capital, said health system leaders consistently cited the need for a single trusted platform to deploy AI safely and compliantly, rather than managing multiple point solutions.
