“Building technology solutions to help every American be safer and live healthier is core to our mission,” said Krishnan Sastry, CEO and president of Appriss Inc., Bamboo Health’s parent company. “Bamboo Health continues to live out that mission, with a laser focus on improving healthcare nationwide and the individual care of each patient. This new company name represents our rapid growth and focus on meeting the needs of our healthcare partners, giving patients, providers, and health plans the opportunity to thrive.”
Appriss was founded in 1994 as a data and analytics company. About a decade ago, Appriss Health formed as the company began to build technological solutions to help combat the growing opioid crisis in the United States. Appriss Health became known for its solutions that help to reduce substance use disorder, and further expanded into the behavioral healthcare space with the acquisition of OpenBeds in 2019. With the acquisition of PatientPing, the nation’s leading care collaboration platform, in 2021, the company – now known as Bamboo Health – was able to integrate solutions for both physical and behavioral healthcare, for more personalized, patient-centric care.
