Our take
Having access to our own healthcare information should be a given, the Anti-Information Blocking Rule allows providers to search for their patient’s records using basic personal information (Name/DOB/Address/etc.), but patients don’t have the same kind of access. Particle is shaping the new standard for U.S. patients wishing to access their own healthcare information with a user-friendly API platform.
Just as Plaid enabled the fintech industry, Particle is doing the same for healthcare. The company’s comprehensive API uniquely combines data from 270 million-plus patients’ medical records, unifying healthcare records from thousands of sources. Healthcare providers can manage the data, but the ultimate goal is to expand so patients can exercise their rights under HIPPA and access their own information.
Investments led by Canvas Ventures in 2022 accelerated the growth of Particle’s analytics products and facilitated the launch of the company’s partner platform. Despite a complex and ongoing dispute between Particle and competitor Epic Health, the company raised a further $10 million in VC funding in 2024, indicating that it's still going strong.
