Verato is a cloud-based patient matching technology that is better, faster, and cheaper than today's standard matching technologies. We use a highly-curated, continuously-updated, self-learning database of identities and identity attributes spanning the entire U.S. adult population. This database acts as an “answer key” for identity data.We call this "referential matching." Verato uses this database as an answer key during matching to make matches no other approach can ever make—even if two records have out-of-date, errored, incomplete, and inconsistent identity data. Because of this approach, our match rates are the highest in the industry. We deliver sub-second performance and can securely handle hundreds of millions of transactions to support the largest organizations. Since, Verato is cloud-based, there is no software to deploy, support, and maintain. We deliver quick time-to-value (weeks, not months or years) and a lower total cost of ownership than any of the on-premises solutions being used today. Better, cheaper, faster. | $10M / Series C / Jan 07, 2019 | |
