The new investment brings the 5-year-old company up to more than $1.5 billion in equity financing.

Bright Health plans to use the new funds for growth in its 43 markets, said Cathy Smith, Bright Health’s CFO and CAO, in an interview. Smith joined the company in January.

“We are going to accelerate our tech platform and strategy, which will include diversification and scaling of our health insurance products in the geographies we operate in, as well as expand our value-based care offerings,” she said.

Next up, the company plans to add small-group and employer-based plans in 2021.
