Harbor Health acquires Rippl, expanding expert dementia support for patients and caregivers. PR Newswire Acquisition Accelerates the Growth of Harbor Health's Condition-Focused Care Pathways and Its Model of Combined Care and Coverage AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - For families facing dementia, each day can bring unfamiliar territory, confusion, and worry. Harbor Health, a Texas-based primary and specialty care clinic group and health insurance company, today announced it has acquired Rippl, a dementia care platform built to help seniors living with dementia remain at home and out of the emergency department, hospital, and post-acute settings. These are places they end up far too often. The acquisition advances Harbor Health's strategy to expand its condition-focused care pathways and strengthen the company's integrated model, which combines expertise in chronic condition management that can better predict care needs and access to coordinated, affordable health insurance. Offering care and coverage combined allows providers to take better care of people through every step of the health journey, better aligning insurance benefits with the right care. Rippl's platform helps identify medical and behavioral issues early, often preventing emergency room visits and easing the emotional burden on families. Harbor Health's condition-focused care pathways are all designed with the same proactive approach. The structured, evidence-based care pathways guide members and clinicians through every stage of managing a specific health condition, such as diabetes, hypertension, and chronic pain (back, knee, hip). Dementia fits perfectly into this unique approach. "Integrating Rippl's dementia platform into our expanding library of condition-focused care pathways gives our health teams another powerful tool to manage complex health needs," said Tony Miller, Harbor Health Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer. "As our health plan membership grows rapidly, these pathways are essential for keeping coverage more affordable and taking better care of people. That's our priority." "We created Rippl to keep seniors with dementia and their caregivers at home and out of the emergency department and hospital," said Kris Engskov, Rippl Care Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer. "We've always understood expert dementia care works best when it's deeply integrated with primary care, and we're excited to see Harbor Health scale this platform as part of its broader effort to deliver condition-focused care and better outcomes while dramatically reducing unnecessary costs."
Michael Dell and Jim Breyer have backed Harbor Health, a startup co-founded by Dr. Clay Johnston, with a recent funding round of $130 million, bringing total funding to $258 million since its 2022 launch. Harbor Health, based in Austin, Texas, operates 43 clinics and offers its own insurance plans. The company uses AI to predict patient care costs and improve outcomes. Despite a decline in family office deal-making, healthcare remains a key interest, with 28% planning to overweight the sector.
