Investment thesis

MCIF provides strategic investment funding to privately held companies offering innovative products, services, and technologies in healthcare information technology, healthcare services, and medical devices. Its goal is to help healthcare systems improve performance and outcomes. A distinguishing feature of MCIF is its emphasis on the strategic relationship between portfolio companies and MemorialCare Health System, offering companies access to hospital and physician leadership, key decision makers, and introductions to other healthcare organizations. The fund targets early to mid-stage healthcare technology companies and positions a company's strategic involvement with MemorialCare as equally important to the investment opportunity itself.
