Particle Health

Particle Health is a developer-friendly API platform that aggregates and standardizes data from over 270 million patients' medical records across thousands of healthcare sources in the US. The company's comprehensive API enables healthcare providers and digital health companies to easily obtain clinical data points and actionable patient health insights through a single integration. Particle Health's technology performs patient matching behind the scenes to connect accounts within HIPAA authorization, overcoming the challenges of accessing medical records across different portals and providers.

Since its inception, Particle Health has achieved significant milestones, including a 90% success rate in finding patient records and an average of 105 records per patient search as of July 2022. The company has expanded its offering beyond electronic medical records (EMRs) to include data sources such as pharmacy records, admission, discharge, and transfer (ADT) notifications, and billing claims data, with plans to integrate genomics and other sources in the future.

Key customers and partnerships

Particle Health has formed notable partnerships and collaborations with various healthcare companies and organizations. For instance, xCures, a technology platform that uses artificial intelligence and predictive modeling to identify and rank treatment options for cancer patients, has integrated Particle Health's Specialty Search capabilities. This integration allows xCures to efficiently access comprehensive oncology data, leading to a significant increase in program enrollment and better patient care management.

Another strategic partnership was announced in November 2023 between Particle Health and Hona, a customizable AI product that converts health records into concise patient overviews. By integrating Particle Health's API for medical record retrieval, Hona can analyze and present a complete view of a patient's health history, enabling providers to make informed clinical decisions and streamline care encounters.
