Company

Company overview

Phreesia helps medical practices, health systems and hospitals manage the steps around a patient’s care, from scheduling and registration to communications and bill payment. These organizations pay for access to its integrated platform, with subscriptions and related services forming its largest revenue category. Phreesia also collects processing fees when patients pay medical bills through its platform. Its AccessOne MedCard business provides patient financing and earns interest and other account charges, along with servicing fees. Together, subscriptions and payment services generate most of its revenue, which comes almost entirely from the United States.

The same healthcare-client network gives Phreesia an audience for Network Solutions. Life sciences companies and other organizations pay to deliver health-related communications to consenting patients, generally under annual contracts priced per engagement. A larger healthcare-client base expands the patients these programs can reach; this business also depends on patients choosing to receive communications and clients’ marketing budgets.

The core business depends on healthcare clients renewing and expanding their use, patients using its payment tools, and continued access to third-party payment processors and electronic medical record integrations. Phreesia has historically received a substantial share of revenue from a limited number of clients. Health privacy laws and client agreements restrict how it may collect, use and disclose patient information, while AccessOne MedCard’s lending is subject to state licensing and consumer-lending rules.

Moat

PHR says it has a moat. Does it hold up?

  • Waystar competes with Phreesia for healthcare providers buying software to check coverage, estimate costs and collect patient payments. Watch Waystar’s new client wins and sales of additional products to existing clients for signs of competition for those providers’ spending.

  • OptimizeRx competes with Phreesia’s Network Solutions for pharmaceutical marketing budgets: both charge life sciences companies to deliver targeted campaigns to patients and healthcare providers. Watch OptimizeRx’s pharmaceutical campaign business for clues to the spending pool supporting Phreesia’s patient-engagement revenue.

  • Doximity competes for the drug-brand marketing budgets that also fund Phreesia’s patient and provider engagement campaigns, charging pharmaceutical manufacturers to place sponsored content on its medical professional network. Its pharmaceutical marketing programs, purchased brand by brand, are the business to watch rather than its hiring or workflow products.

  • Paymentus overlaps with Phreesia in helping healthcare billers present bills and collect patient payments, earning transaction fees for its billing and payment technology. Watch its healthcare billing business specifically: Paymentus also serves many other industries, so its overall results are not a direct measure of demand for Phreesia’s patient-payment offering.

  • Repay overlaps with Phreesia’s patient-payment processing by helping consumer-healthcare and healthcare organizations accept electronic payments instead of cash or checks. Watch its healthcare customers and payment-system integrations; its broader consumer lending and business-payment operations make total revenue a less direct comparison.
