H1 raises $40M led by CVS Health Ventures

H1, a nine-year-old healthcare data platform, raised $40 million in a round led by CVS Health Ventures. CEO and co-founder Ariel Katz said H1 — which licenses detailed physician data to pharma companies, hospital systems and insurers — turned cash-flow and EBITDA profitable last year and is forecasting over 40% growth this year. Katz argued that being a data-first provider makes H1 less vulnerable to AI replacement and could make it a supplier to model makers. H1 was last valued at $750 million after a $100 million round in November 2021 led by Altimeter Capital, and the company has grown through acquisitions of smaller competitors and complementary businesses.
