Every year Inc. Magazine manages to convince thousands of private companies to divulge their otherwise closely held financial data to the publication in exchange for a chance at placing on the annual Inc 5,000 and Inc 500 fastest growing private companies in America lists.

While we're not in the habit of reporting on awards, Inc's is based on hard data, albeit self-reported: the percent change of annual revenue in a three-year period. Using this metric Inc placed nearly 400 health-related companies among its top 5,000, and a good number of them were digital health companies.

MobiHealthNews rounded up the top 10 private digital health companies on the list (along with Fitbit, which went public a few months ago). There are many other digital health companies profiled, (including Vitals, Dimagi, MedTouch, and more) so be sure to check out Inc's full list over here.
