An interconnected platform of health system-built utilities.
The infrastructure layer health systems build and own — shared workflows, unified operations, interconnected utilities — created by health systems, for health systems, to unlock durable value at scale.
A specialty pharmacy management utility combining embedded care teams, a next-generation technology platform, and deep market access strategy.
Led by: Jigar Thakkar, CEO
THE CHALLENGE IT SOLVES
Health systems are losing specialty pharmacy revenue they've built — and absorbing clinical, operational, and financial complexity no single system was designed to manage alone.
BUILT FOR
Health systems that want to grow and optimize their specialty pharmacy capabilities without ceding control to a third-party operator.
WHAT CHANGES
Specialty pharmacy revenue captured. 340B compliance strengthened. Complex therapies — including cell and gene — made accessible. Patient access, clinical outcomes, and financial sustainability, improved together.
The shared operating backbone built by people who've worked inside health system operations — not retrofitted from a generic platform.
Led by: Jim Lester, CEO · Colin Drylie, COO
THE CHALLENGE IT SOLVES
Health system operations run on a patchwork of vendors, each solving one problem in isolation — with no shared infrastructure to unify them.
BUILT FOR
Health systems that want to reduce fragmented workflows, cut through point-solution sprawl, and bring AI-enabled automation to their most acute revenue and cost areas.
WHAT CHANGES
Fragmented workflows unified. Operational capacity expanded. Point solutions reduced. And because FX serves as the operating backbone for every other Longitude utility, its value compounds across the network.
Clinical research operations infrastructure embedded inside health system care delivery.
Led by: Thad Wolfram, CEO
THE CHALLENGE IT SOLVES
Health systems want to grow their clinical research programs. The administrative complexity — financial operations, contracting, regulatory compliance, and staffing that most can't scale without the right infrastructure.
BUILT FOR
Health systems looking to expand research without growing administrative burden. Sponsors and CROs that need a single point of entry to access multiple health systems simultaneously.
WHAT CHANGES
Physicians focus on research, not administration. Health systems grow their programs sustainably. Sponsors and CROs gain streamlined, multi-system access.
An EHR-integrated platform connecting health systems, payers, manufacturers, and pharmacies across the full cell and gene therapy continuum.
Led by: Sinthu Sinnadurai, President
THE CHALLENGE IT SOLVES
Cell and gene therapies are rewriting what's possible in medicine. The operational infrastructure to deliver them at scale doesn't exist inside individual health systems.
BUILT FOR
Health systems that want to scale advanced therapy programs beyond what any single organization could build or sustain independently.
WHAT CHANGES
Advanced therapy programs scale. Real-time visibility across the patient care journey. A national CGT network no single system could build alone.
The infrastructure layer for home medication delivery, virtual specialty clinics, and coordinated care for complex conditions — run by health systems, for their patients.
Led by: Snehal Patel, MD., Executive in Residence
THE CHALLENGE IT SOLVES
Health systems know what their patients need after discharge: home medication delivery, virtual specialty clinics, coordinated care for complex conditions. The economics of building those programs alone rarely justify the investment.
BUILT FOR
Health systems under operational pressure and communities fighting to maintain access to care — any system that wants to extend care beyond the hospital walls at a scale they couldn't justify alone.
WHAT CHANGES
50 million patient touchpoints last year. Programs health systems know their patients need — but couldn't justify building alone — are now viable. Care beyond the four walls, at network scale.
This is what it looks like when health systems decide to solve the problem themselves — not hand it to another vendor and hope the incentives align this time.Binita Patel · Chief Pharmacy Officer, Memorial Hermann Health System
