Smartcare Software has announced the completion of a Series A funding round to accelerate the development of new technologies to improve care outcomes.
The funding round was led by Ziegler Link-Age Fund III, LP, aiming to begin a collaboration between the two organisations for continued, focused industry transformation.
“The long-term senior care continuum is evolving rapidly to support the growth of our aging population, yet it still faces critical challenges like extreme caregiver shortages and retention issues,” says Scott Zielski, CEO and founder of Smartcare Software.
“Smartcare’s focus on innovation is solving these challenges while enabling digital workflows that improve care outcomes and reduce the overall cost of home care. We are pleased to have this broadened support from our investor network and stakeholders to empower next-generation technologies to support the long-term care continuum.”
As part of Ziegler Link-Age Fund III’s investment in Smartcare, Katie Schmitz, manager and chief administrative officer of the fund, joined Smartcare’s Board of Directors.
She says: “Smartcare meets all the criteria we look for in an investment. Not only has it grown and scaled quickly, but their solution addresses so many of the pain points we hear from senior living and care providers.
“We are looking forward to driving value not just for Smartcare, but also the providers in our network who are seeking a better and more efficient way to deliver home and community-based services.”
Smartcare, a software development company based in Wisconsin healthcare, uses technology to organise, optimise, and drive home care best practice processes for providing healthcare within the home while saving time and improving profitability and patient outcomes.
The system provides tools to help manage patient care, compliance and manage a home agency by streamlining workflow, scheduling, billing at point of care.
“Smartcare’s enterprise care platform improves the overall home care experience with multi-faceted engagement solutions that make better senior care a reality,” Zielski explains.
“From a business owner perspective, Smartcare’s organic data-driven solutions and insights empower informed decisions to improve home care delivery and provide better outcomes.”
