Criteria
What We Look For
We are interested in healthcare businesses and venture ideas where clinical knowledge, experienced leadership, technology, disciplined execution, and the right relationships can create meaningful value.

Examples
Six opportunities your sales team could be pitching this quarter.
Each one is something CMS or a payer is already paying to solve. The Opportunity Atlas shows you which markets, which buyers, and how to frame the ask.
Use these as templates. The Opportunity Atlas produces a custom set for your product, segment, and geography.
01 · OPPORTUNITY
Sleep Apnea: Therapy Fulfillment Gap
- HCPCS 95810
- HCPCS E0601
- MA Stars
THE SIGNAL
Markets where diagnostic sleep test volume (HCPCS 95810) is high, but therapy fulfillment (CPAP HCPCS E0601) lags by 30%+.
WHY CMS / PAYERS PAY FOR THIS
MA plans lose triple-weighted Star points on care coordination when diagnosed patients are never started on therapy.
SALES NARRATIVE
“Stop losing patients at diagnosis. We have identified the 12 counties where your DME network is missing 40% of the therapy volume you have already paid to diagnose.”

02 · OPPORTUNITY
COPD: Hospital-to-Home Shift
- DRG 190-192
- HCPCS E1392
- Readmit Penalities
THE SIGNAL
States with top-quartile Inpatient spend but bottom-decile Home Oxygen utilization (HCPCS E1392).
WHY CMS / PAYERS PAY FOR THIS
CMS penalizes 30-day COPD readmissions. Home oxygen and pulmonary rehab prevent ER visits at a fraction of admission cost.
SALES NARRATIVE
“Recover your MA Star points and cut avoidable admissions — funded by home oxygen workflows you are already eligible to bill.”

03 · OPPORTUNITY
Heart Failure: RPM Revenue Transition
- CPT 99457
- CPT 99458
- BPCI-A
THE SIGNAL
High economic density (spend per patient) but near-zero utilization of Remote Physiological Monitoring (RPM) codes.
WHY CMS / PAYERS PAY FOR THIS
Transitions of care are high-risk. RPM creates a continuous care bridge that protects BPCI-A bundle savings.
SALES NARRATIVE
“Turn your Heart Failure discharge program into a paid workflow. Less than 2% of eligible CHF beneficiaries in high-spend counties are enrolled in a digital bridge.”

04 · OPPORTUNITY
Type 2 Diabetes: Silent Nephropathy Screen
- CPT 83036
- CPT 82465
- HEDIS
THE SIGNAL
High volume of E&M visits (99213/99214) but low utilization of critical kidney screening labs.
WHY CMS / PAYERS PAY FOR THIS
Dialysis is the single largest cost driver for MA plans. Early detection of kidney disease in diabetic cohorts saves millions in long-term claims.
SALES NARRATIVE
“Your diabetic population has a 40% screening gap in high-density regions. Close it now to save $12k per patient in avoided dialysis costs.”

05 · OPPORTUNITY
Parkinson’s: Neurology Access Optimisation
- Specialty ROI
- Fall Prevention
- SNF Avoidance
THE SIGNAL
Geographic hotspots where Parkinson’s prevalence is high, but the primary specialty managing care is Internal Medicine rather than Neurology.
WHY CMS / PAYERS PAY FOR THIS
Specialist-led care reduces fall-related fractures and expensive Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) stays.
SALES NARRATIVE
“Your Parkinson’s members are being managed by GPs without specialised protocols. We found where a Neurologist partnership yields the highest ROI.”

06 · OPPORTUNITY
Hypertriglyceridaemia: Metabolic Market Density
- MLR Reduction
- Specialty Pharma
- Allowed/Patient
THE SIGNAL
States where allowed spend per patient is more than 2x the national average for metabolic conditions.
WHY CMS / PAYERS PAY FOR THIS
Managing high-cost metabolic tiers reduces long-term cardiovascular event spend, a primary driver of Medical Loss Ratios (MLR).
SALES NARRATIVE
“Optimise your metabolic sales force. Here are the 10 states where spend-per-patient indicates a premium specialty clinical service opportunity.”

How we evaluate
The questions we ask
- 01Does the company address a real problem affecting patients, caregivers, clinicians, or care teams?
- 02Can it improve the end-to-end care experience rather than optimizing only one isolated transaction?
- 03Can it produce better clinical, functional, financial, safety, access, or quality-of-life outcomes?
- 04Can it reduce unnecessary work or cognitive burden for clinicians?
- 05Does it make appropriate care easier to deliver or receive?
- 06Can its impact be measured using credible and practical indicators?
- 07Is the business model aligned with better care rather than dependent on avoidable waste or friction?
- 08Can VIPCare Health's capital, operating support, technology, and relationships materially improve its chances of success?
We do not require every opportunity to address every question. Each portfolio company should have a credible connection to improved care delivery and meaningful patient, caregiver, or clinician impact.
