    1m has developed a SaaS-based platform purpose-built to help healthcare systems manage financial, operational, and regulatory risk by integrating data, analytics and monitoring tools into existing risk management workflows. The platform delivers timely, high-ROI decision support and anomaly detection, with end-to-end risk assessment workflow tools that reduce administrative burdens. It provides continuously updated, healthcare-specific risk datasets to flag emerging threats and quantifies operating and balance sheet risks for integration with long-term financial and strategic planning. Leadership-friendly dashboards surface risk management program outputs to drive engagement, and the product includes built-in risk mitigation support via proprietary data monitoring and anomaly detection tools. The company is led by former Goldman Sachs healthcare investment bankers Jeff Ellis and Chris Giuliano. 1m plans to use the new funding to expand go-to-market efforts, enhance its intellectual property, and hire technical talent.
