General Catalyst-backed Aidoc, Clarium, Commure, Fabric, HippocraticAI, Judi Health, Transcarent, and Verse Medical partner with Summa and HATCo to deliver more affordable, accessible, and resilient community-based healthcare, with Percepta serving as a transformation partner to build a seamless operating system.
AKRON, OH, AUGUST 19, 2026 - Summa Health and General Catalyst's Health Assurance Transformation Company (HATCo) today announced Summa's technology "stack", unveiling the first companies to partner with the system on its transformation plan. General Catalyst's HATCo acquired Summa Health in October 2025 with the vision of delivering a more proactive, accessible, and affordable system of community-based, lifelong healthcare. These companies are the first to come together to partner with the Akron-based system and work towards delivering on that vision in partnership with Summa Health and GC's HATCo.
"Turning Summa Health into a system of care that is proactive, accessible and affordable requires something this industry has never done: the companies building the next generation of healthcare infrastructure working as one, inside a community health system. I'm energized by what that will mean for patient and provider experience and outcomes in Akron and beyond," said Hemant Taneja, CEO of General Catalyst and founder and chairman of HATCo. "A system of true health assurance is made possible through the collaboration of a vibrant ecosystem of visionary tech founders and experienced health system leaders working together to reimagine healthcare."
"The first nine months were focused on achieving organizational stability and making targeted investments that support staff and ensure patients continue to receive the highest quality health care", said Daryl Tol, acting president and CEO of Summa Health and CEO of HATCo, which General Catalyst created to transform health systems into resilient, enduring organizations. "Summa is now ready to embrace technology that will enable sustainable transformation and outcomes to serve generations in the decades to come."
Summa Health employs approximately 8,000 employees across the system and SummaCare. Aidoc, Clarium, Commure, Fabric, HippocraticAI, Judi Health, Transcarent, and Verse are all backed by General Catalyst, and are working together to connect, support, and empower Summa's patients, providers and staff to improve the health of its communities and serve as a blueprint for broader healthcare transformation in the US and beyond. That includes new technology, resources and support to drive transformation enablement while addressing system fragmentation to make day-to-day operations run more smoothly, and build towards a more connected, seamless patient experience:
HATCo is working with Percepta, a GC transformation company, to build the Health System Command Center, which will bring frontier AI into daily hospital operations and unify Summa's technology stack into an intelligent operating system. The platform will orchestrate these solutions across the enterprise to enable AI-native care delivery, efficient operations, and a connected patient experience.
