Encore Healthcare

What Encore Healthcare does

Encore Healthcare, founded in 2015 and headquartered in Livingston, Tennessee, is a privately held healthcare technology and services company focused on post-acute respiratory care. It sells the Nexus platform, a cloud-based respiratory management SaaS that centralizes equipment management, clinical assessments, plan-of-care documentation, patient engagement, telehealth/IVR, and outcomes analytics for HME providers, skilled nursing facilities, health plans, and physician/hospital partners. Nexus integrates via custom APIs with the major ventilator manufacturers—Breas EveryWare, Philips Care Orchestrator, React Health Connect, and Löwenstein Prisma Cloud—providing a single dashboard for CMS NCD compliance, including the ComplianceHub module.

The company monetizes through per-patient monthly Nexus subscriptions, performance-based per-member-per-month (PMPM) population-health contracts with Medicaid MCOs, Medicare Advantage plans, and commercial payers, RPM services delivered in partnership with Sanusom, professional services for sub-acute respiratory staffing, and bundled ventilator rental plus clinical management through the VENT360+ channel partnership with Trace Medical. Distribution is sales-led via VP-level field executives targeting enterprise HME chains (AdaptHealth, AeroCare, ResMed endorsement, VGM member companies), SNFs, and payers; the company also hosts the long-running Smoky Mountain Symposium as an industry marketing and clinical-credibility channel.

Encore reports managing over 50,000 patients and 400,000+ clinical assessments, and cites outcomes including 60% reduction in hospitalizations, 80% reduction in ED visits, 73% NIV adherence vs. 50% industry standard, and ventilator length-of-service extension from approximately 9 to 20+ months for HME clients. Headcount is 11–50 employees, no outside funding rounds are disclosed, and the company is pursuing SOC 2 Type II on top of completed HITRUST r2, SOC 2 Type I, HIPAA, and ACHC credentials. Recent strategic activity is concentrated in ventilator-manufacturer integrations (March–June 2025), the Trace Medical channel launch (September 2024), HITRUST r2 certification (January 2026), and ATS 2026 research acceptance for AI-enabled ventilator outcomes work.
