Mercy Health

About

In 1920, the Sisters of Mercy opened St Benedict's Hospital in Malvern - Melbourne's first private hospital run by the order - marking the beginning of what would become Mercy Health. This moment emerged from a 2,000-year tradition of caring that began when Catherine McAuley founded the Sisters of Mercy in Dublin in 1831. The Sisters arrived in Australia responding to community needs, and their healthcare ministry grew from that initial hospital into a comprehensive network serving people across every stage of life.

Today, Mercy Health stands as a for-purpose Catholic organisation with over 10,000 compassionate people delivering care throughout Victoria, southern New South Wales, Queensland, and the Australian Capital Territory. The organisation encompasses two major public hospitals - Mercy Hospital for Women and Werribee Mercy Hospital - subacute hospitals in Albury and Young, 34 residential aged care homes, 10 retirement villages, and extensive home and community care services supporting thousands to live independently. Through the Mercy Health Foundation and partnerships with leading universities, the organisation continues its mission of providing compassionate care while advancing research and charitable work for those most in need.

Judi Health

In 2017, AJ Loiacono and Ryan Kelly founded Capital Rx with a singular mission: to transform the broken prescription drug pricing system that was costing patients and plans billions. They recognized early on that the traditional pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) model was riddled with hidden fees, opaque pricing, and misaligned incentives that prioritized profits over patient care. Rather than simply building another layer of technology on top of existing systems, they made the bold decision to become a full-service PBM themselves, developing their own platform from the ground up that would enable unprecedented transparency and efficiency. What began as a focused effort to revolutionize pharmacy benefits quickly evolved into something much larger. As they built their technology platform, they realized that to truly transform healthcare, they needed to address the entire health benefits ecosystem - not just pharmacy. They developed Judi®, an open, secure, and scalable enterprise health platform that could unify claims processing across pharmacy, medical, dental, and vision benefits. This breakthrough platform enabled the launch of Judi Health™, the industry's first Unified Claims Processing™ platform, which eliminates administrative waste and redundancies by bringing all benefits together in one system. In 2025, Capital Rx rebranded to Judi Health to reflect this expansion beyond pharmacy, marking the company's evolution into a full-stack health infrastructure platform that's building the digital foundation needed to make healthcare accessible, affordable, and transparent for all.

Humata Health, Inc

As a "recovering radiologist" from Mayo Clinic and Harvard, Dr. Jeremy Friese experienced the struggles of prior authorization firsthand. After learning that payers also despised the cumbersome, costly process, he set out on a mission to bring providers and payers together to automate the problem so patients can get the care they deserve while reducing the costs and waste that plague our healthcare system. Six years ago, the team began building an artificial intelligence solution to solve prior authorization for all medical specialties. After a couple acquisitions and tens of millions of dollars invested in the technology, Dr. Friese returned with Humata Health and an amazing team. While they have helped millions of patients, the time is now to deliver truly "frictionless prior authorization" at scale so every patient gets the care they deserve and the process becomes touchless. As a physician-led company, Humata is solely focused on solving the complexities of prior authorization by seamlessly connecting payers and providers, leveraging deep clinical expertise and advanced AI to streamline approvals, reduce administrative burden, and ensure patients receive timely care.
