H1, a healthcare tech company, has acquired Ribbon Health, a provider data management platform, to expand into health plans, provider systems, and digital health sectors. Finalized in December, the cash-and-stock deal’s value was not disclosed.

Ribbon Health’s platform will integrate into H1’s offerings as “H1 for Health Plans and Digital Health,” enabling real-time provider data access for insurers, providers, and digital health companies. Founded in 2016, Ribbon addresses provider data challenges with an API for nationwide directories, used by 20–25 million people annually.

H1 CEO Ariel Katz highlighted the shared mission of connecting patients with the right providers. Post-acquisition, H1 aims to serve over 200 million Americans annually by combining Ribbon’s data with its analytics, including insights into provider demographics and patient populations for better care matching.

Ribbon, backed by investors like General Catalyst and Andreessen Horowitz, raised $75 million before the acquisition. H1, founded in 2017, operates a platform connecting healthcare professionals with life sciences companies. It has raised $193 million and is profitable.

H1’s 2025 product roadmap enhances solutions for medical, clinical, and commercial teams, focusing on diversity and equity in clinical trials. Former FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn, M.D., has joined H1’s board, adding regulatory expertise. The company also continues to innovate in AI tools, such as GenosAI Pro, and remains open to mission-aligned acquisitions.
