A healthcare technology startup, ExaCare AI, raised $30 million in a Series A funding round to address operational challenges in skilled nursing facilities, with major operators already using its services nationwide. The company plans to accelerate product development and strengthen customer support operations.
ExaCare AI’s technology aims to streamline the admissions process by automatically extracting critical information from unstructured referral packets, improving decision-making speed and accuracy. This has resulted in significant time savings for operators, with one reporting a 60% reduction in manual work and an increase in annual revenue per facility.
The company has appointed five new advisors to guide its product roadmap and plans to introduce specialized AI agents to manage different aspects of the admissions workflow. These agents will assist with clinical factors, reimbursement documentation, patient histories, survey readiness, compliance, and more for a more efficient operating environment.
ExaCare AI will host its first summit on April 25 in Arizona to explore how AI can be applied in skilled nursing and long-term care. The company’s innovative technology aims to help nurses focus more on patients and less on paperwork, creating a more streamlined and accountable healthcare environment. 1.
