From wikipedia:
> Outcome Health is a Chicago-based healthcare technology company founded by Rishi Shah. Its registered name is ContextMedia Health LLC. It is majority owned by Littlejohn & Co., a private equity firm. After its founders were indicted by a federal grand jury on multiple charges of fraud and also sued by the SEC, veteran tech investor Howard A. Tullman called Outcome "our version of Theranos."
> In May 2017, a funding round with Goldman Sachs, CapitalG, Pritzker Group, and others invested $600 million in Outcome Health, giving it a $5.6 billion valuation. This is the largest single funding round in Chicago since Groupon in 2011, when it raised $950 million in its fifth funding round.
Private capital investment + healthcare = bad combo
- mavelikara 4y agoThis seems to be an adtech company specializing in a vertical (healthcare). They do not have anything to do with the caring of the health of humans. Apologies if you didn't imply that.
- game_the0ry 4y agoNo need for apologies, and given the legal name of the company was ContextMedia Health LLC, I agree.
