Health tech startup Care.fi backed by Peak XV acquires Aldun

Care.fi, a Gurugram-based healthcare-focused fintech startup founded by Vikrant Agrawal and Sidak Singh, has announced its acquisition of Aldun, a discharge-automation platform known for enabling near-instant, 10-minute patient discharges.

Aldun currently supports around 10,000 discharges each month across hospital networks including Aster, Apollo, Manipal, Sir Ganga Ram, Fortis, KIMS, Narayana, and Cloudnine, impacting over 1 lakh lives and saving hospitals more than 10 lakh administrative hours.

Care.fi plans to scale the combined solution to 300 hospital units and approximately 1 lac monthly discharges, creating a unified and transparent experience from admission to settlement. 

By integrating Aldun’s last-mile orchestration with Care.fi’s revenue-cycle and financing rails, the acquisition addresses a system-wide bottleneck, slow, manual discharge, unlocking measurable capacity and cash flow for providers. Hospitals will benefit from higher bed-turnover, faster claims closure, and reduced denials, while finance teams gain real-time visibility into receivables and working capital. For the broader ecosystem, faster discharges will increase daily effective capacity without new capex, improving access and service levels.

“Discharge is the last mile of care and the first memory a family takes home. By bringing Aldun into the Care.fi fold, we’re turning hours into minutes and queues into capacity. Coupled with our RCM and financing rails, including our single-window claims platform, hospitals get one operating layer for faster discharge, cleaner books and a measurably better patient experience,” said Vikrant Agrawal, Co-founder at Care.fi.
