SaVia Health

SaVia Health, a clinician-led healthcare technology firm established in 2022, is focused on optimizing clinical operations and patient outcomes. The company was co-founded by Dr. Will Caldwell, a practicing physician with over two decades of clinical experience, and a team of healthcare software engineers, including Mike McBride and David Edwards. Dr. Caldwell's journey into the business side of medicine was driven by a desire to make a broader impact, leading him to pursue an MBA. His extensive background includes serving as Senior Vice President at both Health Catalyst and Novant Health, along with significant work in global health, which has shaped the company's data-driven approach.

The company's core offering is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform that embeds directly into existing Electronic Medical Records (EMR) systems like Epic and Cerner, causing no disruption to clinical workflows. This platform transforms paper-based, manual care processes into dynamic, digital workflows, providing clinicians with real-time decision support at the point of care. By analyzing live EMR data, the system delivers role-specific, actionable notifications to the right clinicians at the right time, helping to standardize care according to best-practice guidelines. SaVia Health's revenue model is based on subscriptions to this software, which targets health systems, large physician groups, and self-insured corporations.

A key application of SaVia's technology is the "Sepsis Assistant," which automatically detects sepsis, tracks treatment bundles, and alerts clinicians to ensure timely intervention. Other products address the prevention of congestive heart failure deterioration and the management of incidental findings from radiology reports. The platform is designed to be configurable without code, allowing healthcare institutions to rapidly implement and modify clinical pathways. In December 2022, SaVia Health secured an $8.5 million seed funding round led by Intel Capital, with participation from other notable investors, to further develop its platform and expand its application library.
