Our story
Health systems don’t need another decision-support tool
Midstream reveals hidden opportunities and empowers teams to act while they still matters.
Developed by experts from respected names in finance and technology
WHY MIDSTREAM
Health systems manage multi-billion-dollar operations but operate in the dark
Financial clarity arrives weeks or months too late, when underpayments are already written off, contract windows have closed, and millions in margin have already slipped away. This is the reality of health system finance today, and it’s costing millions.
Midstream fixes this.
Midstream is an AI-powered, proactive financial action platform. Where traditional systems report on what happened, Midstream changes when action can happen, filling the gaps, translating data into clarity, and transforming the tempo of decision-making itself.

The way we work together matters just as much as what we’re building
We’re a small, tight-knit team that shows up for each other with honesty, curiosity, and care. We move fast because we trust one another, learn openly, and share the same purpose.
Make things happen
We move fast, learn fast, and adapt in real time. We ship early and often — turning insight into impact with speed, focus, and a deep respect for execution.
Collaboration
We win together. We value curiosity, humility, and direct communication, believing the best ideas come from diverse perspectives. We build with, not for, each other.
Ownership mindset
We own outcomes, not tasks. Each of us acts like an owner — taking initiative, holding ourselves to high standards, and always following through.
Transparency
We operate with transparency — open communication, honest data, and clarity of purpose. Everyone understands the “why” behind decisions so we can move fast in the same direction.
