Wayspring Raises $75M in Funding

Wayspring

Wayspring, formerly axialHealthcare, a Nashville, Tenn.-based value-based care entity, raised $75m in funding.

Backers included Valtruis, Centene Corporation, CareSource, HLM Venture Partners, Highmark Ventures, .406 Ventures, the Blue Venture Fund, and Oak HC/FT.

The company will use the capital to scale its value-based care solution, a full-risk medical home model for substance use disorder (SUD).

Led by Carter Paine, Chief Executive Officer, Wayspring is a value-based care entity exclusively focused on substance use disorder. The company leverages data analytics to outreach to the highest-risk individuals and deliver high-touch, community-based peer support, behavioral health, and primary care.

Wayspring also partners with existing provider networks to refer members to high-quality treatment, facilitate care transitions, and improve adherence to evidence-based medicine.

Since launching its member-facing SUD management solutions with three health plans in 2020, the company has driven significant savings through the reduction of inpatient treatment readmissions, hospital admissions and emergency department visits.
