J3RCM, Loop Announce Partnership, Investment From Champion

FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida—J3RCM, a provider of business operation services to medical practices, and Loop, a provider of durable medical equipment (DME) logistics, announced a partnership and an investment from Champion.

By integrating Loop’s operational speed into J3RCM’s revenue cycle management (RCM) ecosystem, the companies said they’re aiming to mend the fragmentation between clinical care, equipment logistics and financial recovery.

The companies added the partnership is built on bridging the gap between sports-adjacent innovation and massive-market medical utility. 

“For over a year, my focus has been eliminating the financial blind spots that burden private practices,” said Josh Fertel, founder of J3RCM. “By joining forces with Loop and receiving the backing of Champion, we are removing the friction that slows providers down. This isn’t just a software update; it’s a performance upgrade for the entire practice.”

“Healthcare providers shouldn’t have to navigate multiple systems to deliver great care,” said Nick Edwards, board member of Loop and Champion. “We are taking the ‘return-to-play’ lens we honed in sports medicine and expanding it. With Champion’s support, we’re building a system that simplifies the process and raises the standard for every patient, athlete or not.”

Champion’s investment is designed to accelerate product development and support the rapid scaling of the integrated ClevEHR ecosystem.

“J3RCM and Loop represent the exact intersection of innovation we look to support,” said Edwards. “Their combined capabilities create a powerful opportunity to reshape how providers deliver care and manage the business of medicine simultaneously.”
