What Evergreen Nephrology does

Evergreen Nephrology is a value-based kidney care company founded in 2021 and headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee. The company partners with nephrology practices, primary care physicians, and other providers across 24 states, working through a network of more than 1,000 providers to deliver coordinated care to patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Rather than replacing the patient's nephrologist, Evergreen layers an interdisciplinary care team, care coordination services, population-health tooling, and value-based contracting infrastructure on top of existing practice workflows.

The company's core product is Evergreen Connected Care, an AI-powered proactive kidney care management platform launched in April 2026 in partnership with Phamily (Jaan Health). The platform provides clinical decision support, omni-channel patient engagement, and reimbursement-model tooling for nephrology practices managing CKD across all stages. Evergreen monetizes primarily through value-based care contracts with Medicare (notably the Kidney Care Choices program) and commercial payors, earning revenue via shared savings, quality-based payments, and care management fees. The company has demonstrated measurable outcomes in the Kidney Care Choices (KCE) Performance Year 2023, including total quality score achievement, optimal start rate improvements, and lower hospitalization readmission rates, and publicly reported strong patient outcomes and cost savings in Medicare's 2024 Kidney Care Choices Program.

Evergreen sells to nephrologists and nephrology practices as its primary customer segment, with secondary relationships with health insurers and Medicare programs. The go-to-market is enterprise-led, relying on direct partnerships with nephrology groups and payor contracts. As of early 2025 the company had raised approximately $140 million cumulatively, anchored by a $130 million round led by Rubicon Founders, Oak HC/FT, and K2 HealthVentures. The company is operationally active with roughly 101-250 internal employees, has appointed a new COO and CFO, and is scaling both geographically and across its product surface.

Direct peers

• Strive Health: Strive Health is a value-based kidney care company partnering with nephrologists and payors to manage CKD and ESRD populations — directly comparable to Evergreen's physician-empowerment VBC model. It is one of the most-funded and visible competitors in the category.
• Somatus: Somatus operates a national value-based kidney care model serving CKD/ESRD patients through partnerships with nephrologists, primary care, and health plans. Overlaps closely with Evergreen in target customer, care model, and VBC contracting approach.
• Monogram Health: Monogram Health delivers in-home value-based kidney and polychronic care, partnering with nephrologists and payors. Comparable to Evergreen on VBC contracting, nephrology partnership model, and focus on slowing CKD progression.
• InterWell Health: InterWell Health is a value-based kidney care provider formed from the merger of Fresenius Health Partners, Cricket Health, and InterWell. It serves nephrology practices and payors with a VBC model that closely mirrors Evergreen's physician-empowerment thesis at much larger scale.

Broad incumbents

• Fresenius Medical Care: Fresenius is the largest global dialysis provider and operates the largest network of dialysis centers and VBC kidney programs. As a broad incumbent, it competes with Evergreen through both its dialysis footprint and its VBC arm (InterWell Health).
• DaVita: DaVita is one of the two dominant US dialysis providers and increasingly invests in VBC and integrated kidney care programs. As a broad incumbent, it overlaps with Evergreen across CKD/ESRD populations and payor contracting.
• US Renal Care: US Renal Care is a midsized US dialysis provider with growing VBC and integrated kidney care capabilities. As an established dialysis operator expanding into VBC, it competes with Evergreen for nephrology practices and payor contracts.

Emerging players

• Healthmap Solutions: Healthmap Solutions is a kidney health VBC company that works with health plans and providers to manage CKD populations. Comparable to Evergreen in the VBC/KCC contracting category though focused more on payor-side analytics than physician partnership depth.
• Cricket Health (now part of InterWell): Cricket Health was a value-based kidney care company focused on early-stage CKD and home dialysis before merging into InterWell Health. It pioneered the kidney VBC model that Evergreen also pursues, making it a direct historical comparator.

Others

• WellSky: WellSky is a health technology company serving nephrology, home health, and post-acute care providers with analytics and care coordination software. While not a VBC operator, its software offerings compete with the analytics layer of platforms like Evergreen Connected Care.
