Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at LRVHealth?
Day-to-day investment decisions are managed by Tripp Peake, Keith Figlioli, and Josh Flum, all Managing Partners. Peake has been the public face of the firm since its 2015 spinout from Long River Ventures, where he was also a partner. The investment committee blends the partnership team with leadership from its strategic health system LPs, ensuring clinical and operational veto power from the end-users who constitute the firm’s primary customer base.
How is LRVHealth related to the health systems that back it?
The health systems are limited partners in the fund, not clients of a separate services business. That means the providers have a direct economic interest in the portfolio’s success and participate in diligence, product design, and early adoption. LRVHealth formally launched this model with a consortium that includes Intermountain Healthcare, Northwell Health, and Providence, creating a captive commercialization channel for portfolio companies.
What investment stages does LRVHealth typically target?
LRVHealth invests from seed to growth equity, with a heavy concentration in Series A and B rounds where a company is ready for initial enterprise deployment within a hospital setting. The firm also makes selective later-stage investments when an existing portfolio company or LP partner requires growth capital to scale within a health-system environment.
What sectors does LRVHealth explicitly avoid?
The firm focuses strictly on healthcare, and within that, it avoids pure life sciences, biotech, and pharmaceutical discovery. LRVHealth targets only healthcare IT, digital health, care delivery services, and tech-enabled payer/provider tools — areas where its provider LPs can serve as first customers and operational validators, which pharma drug development does not fit.
How does LRVHealth source proprietary deal flow?
A meaningful portion of LRVHealth’s deal flow reaches the firm through clinical and operational leaders at its LP health systems who identify internal pain points and scout for vendors. Rather than cold-sourcing from the market, the firm effectively operates a distributed research team of thousands of clinicians and administrators who surface problems and potential solutions from inside the enterprise.
