☆ Exclusive: GroundGame Health and SameSky Health are merging with $17 million from 7wireVentures and Elevance to get underserved patients access to care
  + stars: | 2024-04-30 | by ( Rebecca Torrence | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
The newly combined company also landed a $17 million Series A led by 7wireVentures. The venture firm is an existing investor in SameSky Health. Health insurance giant Elevance Health, formerly known as Anthem, an existing investor in GroundGame Health, also participated in the round. By addressing these barriers together, GroundGame CEO Susan Rawlings Molina said, GroundGame and SameSky can help more patients access healthcare while saving money for payers. While SameSky's technology can help underserved patients seek out care, GroundGame can close the loop by removing barriers to their access to that care, she said.

7wireVentures, a prominent venture-capital firm, just raised $217 million to fund the next generation of healthcare startups, bringing the firm's total assets under management to more than $500 million. The fund, which closed last Friday, is the biggest that 7wire has ever raised and represents a strategy shift for the firm. The startups Folx Health and Parsley Health, new investments for 7wire, have also won contributions from the new fund. Livongo7wire keeps funds and the portfolio size, just north of 20 startups, both relatively small, all managed by only four partners: Tullman, Jaffee, Shapiro, and Garber. The small size of the operation is intentional in keeping with 7wire's "quality over quantity" approach to investing, Garber said.
