Health Professionals Alliance Opens Second Funding Round

New investment will build on $28M raised in the company’s initial investment round

LAKE OSWEGO, Ore.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Today, Health Professionals Alliance announced the opening of its second round of funding, the Ambassador Round, to a limited number of accredited investor dental and medical private practices at a price of $2.00 per share. The company aims to raise $10M in its Ambassador Round, building on the Founder’s Round where it raised more than $28M in placements to 38 private practices and closed on April 15, 2021.

HPA has created a business model that is designed to give private healthcare practices an alternative path to current liquidity options that often result in an acquisition by either a hospital group or private equity firm, and strip consumers of choice.

“There is strong data showing doctors provide better patient care when they are in private practice. Their work-life balance is more satisfying, and patients reap the benefits,” said HPA President, Kate Othus. “At HPA, we are disrupting the old model to bring price transparency and real-time data analytics to doctors running their own business — and to connect these doctors across the country with each other.”

Medical and Dental providers currently within HPA’s extended network rose to over 3,000 medical and dental professionals as of July 2021.

HPA has created a service-based healthcare company where doctors not only enjoy discounted essential services and a cutting-edge data analytics dashboard, but they have the opportunity to be shareholders through a practice equity program that allows doctors to unlock the equity in their practice without having to sell to large healthcare systems or investors.

“Investing in HPA offers me the financial benefits and long-term freedom I was seeking,” said Michael Rieber, MD. “HPA’s model allows me to remain independent, which in turn allows me to continue to practice medicine the way I believe it should be and the way my patients expect and deserve. The company recognizes the equity I’ve built in my practice and provides me with new levers to exercise that equity and grow the business without selling out.”

INDUSTRY-SPECIFIC SERVICES

HPA offers multiple resources and services enabling independent providers to stand firm against corporate consolidation trends that drive up the cost of healthcare at the expense of doctors and patients alike.

HPA has signed 12 new strategic partners since January of 2021. These strategic partnerships are designed to support practice growth, and provide expertise not typically found in a doctor’s office like dedicated IT teams, tax and accounting services equipped to handle the complexities of healthcare organizations, and merchant services to process patient payments. New HPA partners include American Express, Crossroads Tax Advisors, Effortless, Fiserv, GNSA, Green Sail Transitions, Harris Berne Christensen LLP, Kleer, Merit Wealth, Numana SEO, and Rx2Live.
