On-Point Investment Analysis
Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe (WCAS)
is a leading private equity (PE) firm,
with a significant presence in healthcare -
it has invested over $22 billion
across 16 partnerships over 40+ years.
We acted as technology and market advisors
to WCAS regarding
spinning out a healthcare IT investment
in the EMR space,
and the potential acquisition and
"roll up" of properties
in the provider revenue cycle realm.
Agility and Execution in Company Launch
We began our work with Predilytics,
now the population health analytics group
at Welltok®, as they were emerging
from "stealth mode."
The technology and people
behind it were brilliant,
and the results they were seeing
needed to be translated
into clear business benefits to payers. We:
​
Developed a company positioning
and messaging platform,
one with clear financial benefits,
including researching and
writing several customer stories.Oversaw the further refinement
of positioning
to adjust to the quickly-evolving market,
and the resulting development
of a new Website,
trade show presence,
brand tools, and identity system.
Solving a Thorny Growth Problem
Due to its meteoric growth and success,
PerfectServe®, a leader in cloud-based clinical
communication and collaboration (CC&C),
needed to better position itself,
and to help it recruit talent to its locations in
Knoxville and across the country.
Our work resulted in a more accessible
and understandable company position,
a new recruiting website
and social media content
that allowed the company's
recruitment efforts
to keep pace with
their ambitious growth plans.
