Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Dina is a healthcare technology company that manages access to in-home and community-based care. Its platform covers network management for in-home services end to end: provider identification, contracting and credentialing, service coordination, collection of visit notes and documentation, reconciliation and payments, and ongoing performance management. The company positions this as a replacement for traditional, manual network management processes for in-home services, combining agentic AI, in-home care contracting specialists and its own fulfillment platform to reduce administrative expense and shorten the time to start of care.

A second product line is a transitions-of-care platform used by hospitals and health systems. It lets organizations build a digital network of preferred post-acute providers β€” home health, home infusion, durable medical equipment, transportation and personal care, alongside skilled nursing and long-term acute care β€” and pairs provider listings with quality data to generate best-fit provider recommendations. Features include text-message-based daily bed-availability surveys for SNF and post-acute partners, dashboards for tracking capacity and network responsiveness, and patient choice lists distributed by email and text. The platform integrates with case management systems and EMRs using HL7 v2 and FHIR standards and exposes an API for connectivity. Stated aims include increasing patient throughput, keeping patients in-network during transitions from hospital to home, reducing length of stay and avoidable days, and lowering readmissions, emergency department visits and hospitalizations.

On the supply side, Dina credentials and contracts directly with personal care agencies and connects them to referral flow from its health plan and PACE partners, offering agencies access to its coordination technology at no charge once their region is activated, plus training, performance management, competitive rates with the option to bid rates for higher-need clients, and quality-based incentives.

Business model

Dina sells to healthcare payers and providers, operating as both a technology platform and a managed network intermediary: it contracts and credentials in-home care agencies on behalf of plans and programs, coordinates and fulfills services, and handles reconciliation and payments. Provider agencies receive access to the technology platform at no cost when their region goes live, indicating the paying customers are the health plans, PACE programs and health systems rather than the agencies.

Traction

The company reports a 250 percent revenue increase in 2020, attributed to COVID-19 demand. A published case study states Dina's post-acute network saved Jefferson Health $570,000 across three hospitals through improved care transitions and reduced length of stay. Its site cites use by leading government programs and health plans and includes a customer testimonial from the Director of Nursing at Redeemer Health. SCAN Group made its seventh strategic investment in the company in October 2023, and Dina was named a 2025 Digital Health Awards finalist at HLTH.

Latest developments

In May 2026 Integrated Home Care Services announced the acquisition of Dina, combining Integrated's home care benefit management and value-based operational scale with Dina's AI-powered orchestration; a site-wide notice states Dina is now part of Integrated Home Care Services. In October 2025 Dina was named a finalist for the Digital Health Hub Foundation's 2025 Digital Health Awards at HLTH in the Rising Star - Home Health category. The company is recruiting personal care agencies into its network with a stated focus on California expansion and is publishing guidance for health plans preparing Special Needs Plan designs for 2027.

β–ΈFull profile β€” market position, technology, go-to-market, geography, history

Market position

Dina describes itself as modernizing network management for in-home services, an area it characterizes as operationally expensive and unresponsive under traditional approaches. It cites use by leading government programs and by health plans and provider organizations. External listings position it among patient engagement and virtual/in-home care platforms, naming Amwell, Kry and Sword Health as comparable companies. Following its combination with Integrated Home Care Services, the merged entity is described as a platform for in-home benefit management.

Dina couples software with an owned, credentialed and contracted network of caregiver agencies backed by service-level agreements, rather than offering technology alone. Additional differentiators cited include end-to-end coverage from provider identification through payments, agentic AI applied to fulfillment, in-home care contracting expertise, proprietary data for best-fit matching, standards-based EMR and case management integration, and rapid confirmation of caregiver availability.

Technology

The platform applies agentic AI and predictive, actionable data analysis to in-home care orchestration, using proprietary data sources for best-fit provider recommendations and closed-loop coordination. It integrates with case management systems and electronic medical records via HL7 v2 and FHIR and maintains an API for connectivity; text-message-based workflows are used for bed-availability surveys and patient choice lists, with dashboards for capacity, performance and quality tracking.

Go-to-market

Direct enterprise sales supported by demo requests and discovery calls on its website, customer case studies (including a post-acute network engagement with three Jefferson Health hospitals), and content marketing through industry commentary on PACE, Special Needs Plan design, Medicare Advantage and regulatory developments such as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Network supply is recruited through an online credentialing form for personal care agencies, with active expansion in California.

PACE programs, Special Needs Plans, Medicare Advantage plans and other government-sponsored programs serving complex and dual-eligible populations; hospitals and health systems managing discharge and post-acute transitions; and personal care and post-acute provider agencies that join the contracted network.

Geography

United States. The company was based in Chicago, Illinois, and now lists corporate offices at 3700 Commerce Pkwy, Miramar, Florida. It reports national expansion of its platform and network, with active network recruitment and expansion focused on California, and publishes guidance for California health plans and PACE programs.

History

The company previously operated under the name PreparedHealth and rebranded to Dina. It closed a $7 million Series A led by Osage Venture Partners in January 2021 to fund national expansion of its digital care-at-home platform and network, and received a further strategic investment from SCAN Group β€” the payer organization's seventh in the company β€” announced in October 2023. In May 2026, Integrated Home Care Services announced its acquisition of Dina.
