KLAS conducts thousands of interviews with provider and payer organizations each year to better understand their experience with their healthcare IT (HCIT) vendors. However, not all vendors are measured by KLAS today—some vendors have very small customer bases and others work in market segments outside KLAS' current focus. To gain insights into vendors we might not currently measure, KLAS asks interviewed organizations to share the most innovative or potentially disruptive HCIT vendors they have seen or heard about recently. Representing the feedback of 52 healthcare professionals and data from KLAS' website analytics, this report examines the emerging HCIT vendors and market segments that are top of mind for healthcare organizations and that are not currently measured by KLAS. In total, this report indexes 66 vendors across high-interest markets.
KLAS’ Emerging HCIT Research
The companies and market segments included in this report are those that surfaced during KLAS interviews or that were searched for on the KLAS website; the report only includes vendors that were founded within the last decade (2013 or later) and that are not currently measured by KLAS. Companies that continue to pique market interest and gain mindshare will be monitored by KLAS in the future.
Note: The data in this report comes from interviews conducted September 2021–September 2023.
