Daymark Health

Value-based oncology care with home-based support

Overview

Daymark Health partners with health plans to take on total cost of care risk and provides supplementary cancer care through in-home and virtual services. Its platform blends care navigation, 24/7 support, symptom management, and early palliative care via a twice-weekly symptom tool, delivered by a community team of nurse practitioners, nurses, social workers, and Health Partners. The model is tied to payer contracts and aims to keep patients outside traditional clinics, reducing fragmentation and coordinating care across the health system. The goal is to improve patient outcomes while lowering overall costs for payers and patients, addressing the needs of the roughly two million Americans diagnosed with cancer each year.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • BCBSRI partnership serving 2,500 patients validates payer demand for coordinated supportive cancer care.
  • $20M Series A from Healthier Capital and Blue Venture Fund funds platform scaling and new payer partnerships.
  • Two million annual U.S. cancer diagnoses represent massive addressable market for wraparound care services.

What critics are saying

  • Optum's Aspire Health aggressively expands palliative care contracts, undercutting Daymark's payer partnerships.
  • Nurse practitioner shortages in Northeast limit in-home visit scalability and breach cost guarantees.
  • BCBSRI pilot fails to demonstrate cost savings, triggering investor pullback and Series B collapse.

What makes Daymark Health unique

  • Dr. Bekelman's oncology expertise and Penn Medicine innovation background inform patient-centric value-based model.
  • Hybrid in-home and virtual care delivery addresses fragmentation between oncologists and primary care providers.
  • Full-risk total cost of care contracts align incentives with payers for sustainable, scalable partnerships.
