  • The US healthcare system accounts for over 17% of GDP, totaling more than $4 trillion annually.
    • RSM estimates approximately one-third of this expenditure—roughly $1 trillion per year—is dedicated to administrative tasks.
    • These administrative costs are driven primarily by a lack of interoperability and absent APIs between healthcare systems.
  • A new wave of startup activity has emerged over the last two years to address these inefficiencies.
    • These companies are building infrastructure specifically designed to extract data from disparate healthcare systems.

    • This foundational infrastructure is intended to enable secondary startups to solve broader data integration problems.
