I’m grateful for Nautic’s partnership in building AnewHealth, a national provider of advanced pharmacy solutions, formed through the combination of Tabula Rasa HealthCare and ExactCare Pharmacy. Nautic brought deep sector knowledge and a strong conviction in the importance of clinically driven pharmacy care for patients with complex medication needs living in home and community settings. Their collaborative, hands-on approach was instrumental in helping us execute on our vision and drive meaningful improvements in care for an underserved patient population.
We deeply value Nautic for their experience as healthcare investors and their commitment to the long-term value of high-quality, patient-centered care in the home. Their strategic insight has helped us identify new markets for expansion, enabling us to grow thoughtfully while staying grounded in the values that define our organization. Their partnership has been instrumental in supporting our team as we scale, ensuring we continue to deliver meaningful impact for the patients, families, and communities we serve.
Nautic was an engaged and collaborative partner in our long-term value-creation efforts and ultimate success, helping us identify several high priority growth initiatives. Most notably, we sought to enhance our technology capabilities, which allowed us to strengthen our core offering, launch into higher-value data and analytics service lines, and successfully expand into gastroenterology and rheumatology. Nautic brought experienced subject matter experts to the table and assisted us in refining our strategies and execution plans.
Nautic partnered closely with our leadership team, enabling us to execute on key growth initiatives including developing a tech-enabled data and analytics offering. By expanding our business, we were able to drive immediate growth and enter attractive new markets with clear future opportunity. We are thankful for Nautic’s thoughtful approach to our strategy.
