General Catalyst solidified its role as a disrupter within the healthcare venture capital space in 2021, when Nashville, Tenn.-based HCA Healthcare sold its PatientKeeper technology to General Catalyst portfolio company Commure. In 2022, the firm continued to make waves within the medtech and healthcare industry. 

General Catalyst’s portfolio of medtech startups includes Aidoc, Cadence, Color, Livongo, OM1, Olive, Osmind, Ro and Sword Health.
