Infrastructure for impact
Community health workers (CHWs), doulas, and other community-based providers are often the first line of connection for patients navigating complex health and social needs. Recent policy changes have opened new reimbursement pathways through Medicaid and Medicare, but many of these providers still lack the tools to get paid for the vital work they do.
Pear Suite equips community-based providers with the technology and infrastructure to deliver care, document outcomes, and bill payers for covered services. Its SaaS platform now supports hundreds of organizations and thousands of CHWs, promotores, and doulas, helping them turn mission-driven work into sustainable practice.
Rock Health Capital is proud to co-lead Pear Suite’s Series A and continue our partnership with the team. Read the announcement to learn more about how Pear Suite is helping community-based providers scale their impact.
