We recently published an article titled Top 10 Health Information Services Stocks Outpacing The Market In 2025. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Waystar Holding Corp. (NASDAQ:WAY) stands against the other health information services stocks.
Health Information Services stocks have become a key focus for investors as AI starts to enter more domains in 2025. Some of the most amazing gains have come in health information services stocks that are utilizing AI to improve research and services in the healthcare sector.
The healthcare information services sector allows investors to gain exposure to a number of growing and emerging technologies including cloud-backed software solutions to physician enablement platforms. Some of the companies in our list are surging based on earnings anticipation while others are increasing in share price because of their upcoming products or revenue growth.
To come up with our list of top 10 health information services stocks outpacing the broader market in 2025, we only considered stocks with a market cap of at least $2 billion that were outperforming the S&P 500 index.

Waystar Holding Corp. (NASDAQ:WAY)
Waystar Holding Corp. (NASDAQ:WAY) is a producer of cloud-based software solutions for healthcare payment processing. The company’s platform provides revenue capture, patient financial care, denial prevention & recovery, reporting & analytics solutions, financial clearance, and claim & payment management solutions. The stock is up 22% this year.
As a relatively new stock on the market, the company doesn’t attract enough investor attention. People normally stay away from IPOs for multiple reasons, one of them being the owners locking in gains once the lock-up period is over. In the case of Waystar Holding, something strange happened. The lock-up period ended on the 4th of December when the stock was trading just below $30. Since that day, it has gained another 50%!
Traders and investors generally sell right before the lock-up period ends and buy lower later. In Waystar Holding Corp. (NASDAQ:WAY)’s case, the strategy failed. Whether that was due to fundamental reasons or not will become clear once the earnings report comes out next week. Till then, investors should keep this stock on their radar.
Overall WAY ranks 7th on our list of the health information services stocks outpacing the market in 2025. While we acknowledge the potential of WAY as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter timeframe. If you are looking for an AI stock that is as promising as WAY but that trades at less than 5 times its earnings, check out our report about the cheapest AI stock.
