Catching Up with Warren Ratliff

Fortson VC portfolio company, AdaptX, continues to raise the bar for patient care and the health care industry as a whole. We recently had the opportunity to catch up with Warren Ratliff, founder and CEO, to hear what’s top of mind after his team completed a successful $10 million fundraising round and begins to wrap up the most successful year in the company’s history.

Q: How had AdaptX grown and evolved this year?

A: We’ve been rapidly expanding across the U.S. and internationally. Over the past several months, we’ve empowered hundreds of clinicians across dozens of new customers, while also deepening our support for existing customers. Along the way, we’ve proven that AdaptX’s unique solutions deliver real, measurable value for health systems large and small, urban and rural, academic and community.

Q: What has AdaptX achieved this year that you’re most proud of?

A: I’m so proud to see clinical leaders using AdaptX to achieve real improvements in patient care – speeding delivery of critical stroke medications, reducing maternal health disparities, improving surgery and clinic access, and so much more.

Q: What is top of mind for you as the CEO of AdaptX in the remainder of 2023?

A: My focus is on making our solutions accessible for as many clinical leaders as possible, so that they can use AdaptX to transform the way they manage patient care. We have a unique opportunity to empower clinicians to address the toughest problems facing healthcare – capacity, quality, equity, burnout. As we close out 2023, we feel a deep sense of urgency about helping clinical leaders address these critical priorities.
