This latest investment follows its previous funding rounds, which included Rs 8 crore in debt capital raised from Wint Wealth and Caspian, along with $2.5 million (around Rs 21 crore) in debt from Trifecta Capital and UC Inclusive Credit. In total, the group has raised approximately Rs 29 crore to date. The fresh funding will be utilized to accelerate its aim to empower Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) for hospitals and expand the reach of RevNow, Care.fi said in a press release. Co-founded in 2021 by Sidak Singh and Vikrant Agarwal, Care.fi aims to weed out the hassles of insurance claims, which remain a complex challenge for hospitals, often leading to delayed discharges, revenue leakages, and operational inefficiencies. According to the Gurugram-based company, its AI-driven RCM platform, RevNow, is making a significant impact by expediting claim settlements and ensuring hospitals receive payments within 3–5 days post-discharge. It enables 30-minute patient discharges by automating final billing and approvals, drastically reducing wait times. RevNow optimizes hospital workflows with real-time query notifications, automated responses, and integrated mailing services. It also enhances financial transparency by providing real-time reconciliation of cash flows at the entity, unit, and claim levels, offering hospitals greater visibility. “Since our inception, we have focused on solving critical operational pain points in hospital revenue management. With RevNow, we are setting new benchmarks in claims processing efficiency. This latest funding will enable us to scale further, helping hospitals optimize financial workflows while ensuring better patient experiences. As the healthcare ecosystem grows, we aim to continue innovating and improving revenue realization for providers,” said Sidak Singh, co-founder of Care.fi. Care.fi claims that it is handling over Rs 800 crore in claims across over 300 hospitals and auditing more than 50,000 claims. The platform also aims to expand RevNow’s capabilities and integrate further with hospital information systems (HIS), electronic health records (EHR), and billing platforms.
