The round was led by Greenspring Associates and joined by new investors Greycroft Partners, Redpoint Ventures and Cross Creek Advisors. Existing lead investor New Enterprise Associates (NEA), as well as Bessemer Venture Partners and Flare Capital Partners also participated in the round. Bright Health will use the funding to fuel growth and support its mission to transform the healthcare system through its Care Partnership model.

"Bright Health is committed to offering affordable and higher quality healthcare to individuals and their families," said Bob Sheehy, Bright Health's co-founder and chief executive officer. "Leading health systems across the country are developing new models to transform the healthcare market in local communities. Bright Health collaborates with these systems to create a proprietary Care Partnership. Our Care Partnership is designed to drive down healthcare costs, improve clinical outcomes, and enhance consumer and provider satisfaction. The result is a reimagined healthcare experience."

Said Gary Campbell, CEO of Centura Health, a leading regional health system in Colorado and western Kansas, "We are a committed leader in the transformation of healthcare delivery to meet the needs of consumers. Our partnership with Bright Health aligns with our goal to increase consumers' access to convenient, high-quality, affordable care and deliver optimum health value."

Bright Health entered the Colorado market for the 2017 plan year. The company's health insurance plans are offered directly to consumers, via broker partners, and through public and private health insurance exchanges. Additional markets, Care Partnerships, and Medicare Advantage Plans are planned for 2018 and beyond.

Mohamad Makhzoumi, General Partner and Head of the Healthcare Services/Healthcare IT practice at NEA stated, "We're thrilled to continue our partnership with Bright Health to disrupt a complicated industry where consumers are demanding change and leading health systems are hungry to deliver. Bright Health has an experienced leadership team with substantial healthcare, informatics, and consumer expertise, as well as a differentiated model that has it poised for continuing growth. The success of this financing round is a testament to the company's vision and the market's confidence in their ability to execute."
