Norwalk-based Oxbridge Health has secured $45 million in Series B financing to scale its Episode Advantage Health Plans. The company uses AI-driven analytics to provide guaranteed pricing for medical procedures, targeting lower costs for employers in its active markets.
Why it matters
By providing upfront price transparency for medical episodes, Oxbridge Health aims to reduce the high cost variance found in standard PPO and HMO models. The firm is positioning itself to help employers achieve significant healthcare savings as it expands its footprint.
The company raised $45 million in new funding, doubling its total historical investment to $90 million. Its models are built on an analysis of 15 million commercial risk-adjusted episodes, with projections indicating cost savings of 10% to 25% for employers by 2027.

The details
Oxbridge Health processes 15 million risk-adjusted commercial episodes to establish coverage allowances for specific procedures, shifting away from traditional fee-for-service models.
