Radiology data analytics vendor Quinsite raises $5.5M in series A financing

Radiology data analytics vendor Quinsite has raised $5.5 million in series A financing, leaders announced on Wednesday.

The funds come by way of investment firms including Fulcrum Financial Partners, Front Porch Venture Partners and the Triangle Tweener Fund, among others. Chapel Hill, North Carolina-based Quinsite said it will use the money to fuel growth initiatives and expansion in other specialties such as pathology, anesthesiology, orthopedics and emergency medicine.

Founded in 2017, the firm said it serves 50 of the top U.S. radiology practices, providing software that analyzes clinical, financial and operational data streams to provide practice insights. The company also collected another $2.5 million in seed funds in early 2022.

The Radiology Business Management Association announced a partnership with Quinsite on May 2, with the vendor developing a new survey engine for practices. Vital Check was built in collaboration with Strategic Radiology and helps provider groups capture feedback from patients, referrers and other stakeholders in a HIPAA-compliant fashion.
