Carenostics is deployed within a system’s EHR and identifies chronic disease patients. The tool then alerts clinicians within their current workflows. Edison, N.J.-based Hackensack Meridian Health has used the tool to identify up to three times more chronic kidney disease patients, according to a Sept. 14 news release.

Along with participating in the round, Mr. Hilzinger joined the company’s advisory board. Venture capital firm M13 led the financing round.
