SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 21, 2025 -- CB Insights today named Arbital Health to its seventh annual Digital Health 50, showcasing the 50 most promising private digital health companies in the world.

“The 2025 Digital Health 50 winners are high-momentum companies poised to define the next era of healthcare,” said Ellen Knapp, Principal Analyst at CB Insights. “This year’s cohort is advancing the shift from reactive to proactive care, developing AI solutions tailored to healthcare's unique regulatory environment, and addressing critical sector-wide challenges from care access to provider burnout and workforce shortages.”

Since its launch in late 2023, Arbital Health has achieved rapid growth across the value-based care ecosystem. The company has onboarded over 1 million patient lives, performed over 250 contract adjudications, doubled its team of value-based care actuaries, and formed strategic partnerships with provider and payer organizations. Earlier this year, Arbital raised a $31 million Series B to accelerate growth and innovation, including the launch of Merlin AI, the industry’s first intelligent value-based care contract performance assistant.

“The Digital Health 50 is an extremely competitive list, with thousands of private digital health companies evaluated each year,” Overstreet added. “Being selected among the top 50 highlights the momentum we’ve built and the impact our platform is having across the healthcare system. This recognition is a testament to the progress we’ve made in transforming value-based care, and we’re excited to continue scaling our platform and ensuring that value-based care contracts align financial incentives with better patient outcomes.”
