Athelas has raised $70M at a $7B valuation, led by @generalcatalyst , with participation from @sequoia , @MorganStanley , and @Kirkland_Ellis

Healthcare administration costs this country $1 trillion every year. That burden falls hardest on independent practices and the physicians working to build something of their own.

This investment accelerates what we have always been built to do: turn complex administrative work into simple, intelligent software. More specialties served. More time back for your team. More revenue staying where it belongs. https://t.co/0cp7SJ82VC
