Qualified Health, which partners with health systems on AI infrastructure and governance, has raised $125 million in a Series B financing round and added several health system customers including Mercy, Emory Healthcare, University of Rochester Medicine, Jefferson Health, and all eight health institutions of the University of Texas System.

Palo Alto, Calif.-based Qualified Health said the financing reflects growing demand from health systems seeking a platform partner capable of deploying and scaling AI safely across the entire organization, rather than through isolated pilots.

At Philadelphia-based Jefferson Health, Qualified Health's platform will support initiatives including quality registry solutions, the development of AI systems that surface emerging care gaps, and the automation of high-burden administrative tasks.


At the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB), within the first six months, Qualified Health established a secure data foundation across EHR and non-EHR data sources, deployed multiple assistants and automated workflows, and generated more than $15 million in measurable run-rate impact.

"Qualified Health has been an exceptional partner as we build and execute our AI strategy at UTMB," said Peter McCaffrey, M.D., chief AI & digital officer at University of Texas Medical Branch, in a statement. "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 as we navigate this period of rapid change. The ROI has already exceeded expectations."

In June 2025, Healthcare Innovation interviewed Kedar Mate, M.D., the company’s chief medical officer.  He said one of the goals of the company was “to create an information ecosystem that is safe, well-managed, well-governed and well-monitored, so that when healthcare systems deploy generative AI, they can know if there's a violation of a guardrail or if there's an issue with information leakage,” he said. “Another thesis is that automation is going to be fundamental to how we drive improvements in productivity. Your market competitiveness will be determined in part by how you adopt AI in the future. If you adopt it sooner and better than the system across the street, then you're going to have a better opportunity to corner aspects of the market in the future.”

The new funding was led by global venture capital firm, New Enterprise Associates Inc. (NEA), with participation from new investors Transformation Capital, GreatPoint Ventures, Cathay Innovation, and Menlo Ventures' Anthology Fund, an AI innovation fund created in partnership with Anthropic. Existing investors SignalFire, Frist Cressey Ventures, Flare Capital Partners, Healthier Capital, Town Hall Ventures, and Intermountain Ventures also participated.
