Great Point Partners announced its exit from Valenz® Health, a healthcare industry private investment firm, after a six-year partnership. Kelso & Company made the acquisition after Valenz's revenue grew by close to 30% per year during their partnership. Great Point Partners' broad network of advisors fostered through past investments in the payment integrity field transformed Valenz's business through strategic M&A, expanding its distribution channel, and increasing its existing market penetration. The growth of the healthcare industry looks promising as healthcare providers like Valenz continue to expand and grow.
The Healthcare Industry is Growing
The healthcare industry is rapidly expanding, and it's no secret why. With advancements in medicine and technology, healthcare providers have the ability to offer better and more accessible healthcare to patients. Growth in the industry means more innovation, better care, and increased access.

These acquisitions were primarily sourced by Great Point Partners, demonstrating the firm's ability to leverage its vast network of advisors.
The strategic acquisitions helped Valenz establish an experienced board of directors in the payment integrity space, expand its distribution channel, and increase its existing market penetration. These strategic business moves helped Valenz address many key market challenges in the self-insured industry, including the lack of transparency within medical costs and wide variances in reimbursement rates.
Great Point Partners' Role in Valenz's Growth
Great Point Partners' exit from Valenz Health after six years is a significant milestone for the healthcare industry, indicating potential growth within the payment integrity sector. Great Point Partners' expertise in the payment integrity space and track record of investment success with founder-owned businesses were crucial factors in Valenz's success.
Great Point Partners' ability to support Valenz's strategic business moves led to the growth of its revenue by over 500%. Great Point Partners was instrumental in expanding Valenz's distribution channel and increasing its existing market penetration, helping the company address many of the self-insured industry's key market challenges.
Final Thoughts
