Opencare
Opencare is a Toronto-based dental marketplace that helps patients find, compare and book vetted dentists across North America while giving dental practices a pay-for-performance patient-acquisition channel. Patients use a matching quiz, verified reviews and instant online booking to choose a provider; practices pay only when a new patient actually shows up and is treated. Founded in 2012, the company has cared for more than 100,000 patients and raised roughly $22.6M, led by 8VC.
Verato
Verato is a healthcare-focused identity data company that helps organizations answer a deceptively hard question: who is who?

Its cloud platform, now sold as Verato MDM Cloud, links and cleans patient and member records across hospitals, health systems, payers, life sciences firms, and government agencies, reducing duplicate records, claims denials, and safety risks while enabling a single 360-degree view of each person.
