Datavant operates a health data collaboration platform that connects hospitals, clinics, payers, and research organizations to enable secure exchange and analysis of health data. Founded in 2017, the company has expanded significantly through a 2021 merger with Ciox Health to offer a suite of health data logistics services including record retrieval, data transformation, and AI-powered analytics. The platform connects more than 80,000 hospitals and clinics globally and serves all major US payers.
The platform's core capability centres on privacy-preserving data linkage - the technical ability to connect health records across organizations while maintaining patient confidentiality. This infrastructure underpins a broader ecosystem serving life sciences companies conducting drug discovery, researchers pursuing public health initiatives, health plans managing coverage decisions, and legal and insurance organizations requiring health data access. Datavant operates globally with over 350 real-world data partnerships, positioning itself as foundational infrastructure for healthcare decision-making across the industry.
The company addresses a longstanding structural challenge: healthcare generates vast amounts of data but remains fragmented across siloed systems, creating inefficiencies in research, patient care coordination, and operational management. By providing technical and logistical services to navigate privacy regulations whilst enabling data accessibility, Datavant operates at the intersection of healthcare interoperability and data privacy - domains requiring both technical depth and regulatory expertise.
