Health Catalyst, Inc.
A maker of data and analytics software that helps hospitals and health systems use their own patient and operations data to make smarter decisions. The company was founded in 2008 by Tom Burton and Steve Barlow, former leaders at Intermountain Healthcare, who built a software platform modeled on that system's data-driven successes and offered it to other providers. The name comes from chemistry, where a catalyst speeds up a reaction, and the company was originally called Healthcare Quality Catalyst before shortening it.
