Aviano Ventures, Everywhere Ventures, Hustle Fund, New Stack Ventures, and Tweener Fund also joined the round, per the company&#8217;s press release.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ALSO READ: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/nervnow.com\/ro\/gobblecube-raises-15m-series-a-for-global-expansion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\"><strong>GobbleCube Raises $15M Series A for Global Expansion<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company processes unstructured clinical documentation, provider notes, discharge summaries, and imaging reports to surface missed Hierarchical Condition Category codes used in Medicare Advantage and other value-based reimbursement models. It&#8217;s unclear how many health systems currently use the platform; Keebler Health did not disclose client counts in the release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The move comes as payers and health systems face mounting pressure on risk adjustment accuracy. Roughly 80% of healthcare information is unstructured and resides outside coded fields, according to the company. A study cited in its press release, published in the Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association, found that only 59.4% of chronic conditions are consistently captured across electronic health record sources.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-left-color:var(--wp--preset--color--palette-color-9)\">\n<p><em>Risk adjustment doesn&#8217;t just have an awareness problem; it has an approach problem. We built Keebler to bring that medical story forward so decisions about risk and reimbursement reflect the holistic view of each patient&#8217;s health. \u00a0<br>Isaac Park, CEO and co-founder<\/em>, <em>Keebler Health<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Keebler was founded by Park, Andrew Stickney, and Kevin Hill, Ph.D., with Terrell Bacchus, M.D., serving as the founding chief medical officer. The company previously raised $1.8 million in a pre-seed round led by New Stack Ventures and $6 million in a seed round led by Freestyle Capital, per CEO Park&#8217;s comments to Fierce Healthcare.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ian Chiang, partner at Flare Capital Partners, said in a statement that the platform &#8220;aligns with how clinical information is actually documented&#8221; and is &#8220;already demonstrating the ability to turn that into meaningful, measurable results.&#8221; Christy Steele, partner at Sands Capital, said in the same release that Keebler addresses &#8220;a system-level constraint in how patient documentation is used across healthcare.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keebler plans to use the funds to expand its team, drive commercial growth, and invest in infrastructure for value-based care organizations. That includes expansion into compliance and audit workflows, specifically AI-enabled readiness for Risk Adjustment Data Validation audits, as federal scrutiny of Medicare Advantage risk coding practices continues.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Longer term, the company said it aims to extend its infrastructure into population health and next-best-diagnostic-action use cases, applying the same unstructured-data processing to proactive risk management across a provider&#8217;s full patient population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-palette-color-9-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-065f92aa8c321ad08b107ed722a35989\"><strong><em>Disclaimer: This news is based on publicly available Information.
