Overview
Skylight Health is a Nashville-based healthcare company building a value-based, multispecialty orchestration platform. Co-founded by Jesse Hunter and Dr. Doug Smith, Skylight connects patients, primary care physicians, and specialists through shared data analytics, technology-enabled care navigation, and local collaboration hubs. The platform helps health plans improve specialty access, reduce unnecessary spend, and align clinicians around whole-person outcomes. In August 2025, Skylight announced a $13M financing led by Valtruis with participation from Andreessen Horowitz and Allen & Company. The company later acquired Stellation Care to add AI-powered provider analytics. Skylight targets fragmented specialty referral workflows that delay care and inflate costs.

Competitive landscape
Edge: Skylight bundles payer analytics, navigation staff, and local hub infrastructure — not just software — for specialty access problems that pure SaaS often fails to fix.
Specialty orchestration sits between payers, PCPs, and independent specialists — relationship-heavy and regional. Skylight's hub model may scale city-by-city faster than national virtual-first navigators but requires local operator talent.
