Overview

My Health Direct operates a consumer healthcare access platform that helps underserved populations find and establish primary care provider relationships. The platform includes referral management and online appointment scheduling tools that let consumers navigate available options and providers. The service is available in over 28 states. The company is HIPAA and HITRUST certified and partners with large health systems, providers and payers. Launched in 2006 and based in Nashville, TN, My Health Direct focuses on expanding access to primary care. It intends to use recent financing to support growth and working capital needs. MyHealthDirect provides patient access solutions designed to improve the patient experience and drive patient acquisition and retention for healthcare partners. The company currently books 1.7 million annual appointments and delivers access to more than 30 million patients through partnerships with large health systems and payors. Its footprint has doubled in less than one year as it expands market share. MyHealthDirect plans to use new capital to scale its solutions for additional hospital and practice partners. The firm positions its platform to meet consumer expectations while optimizing revenue for health systems. Leadership says the company is focused on transforming the patient experience outside the moment of care. MyHealthDIRECT, founded in 2005 and based in Wisconsin, offers a browser-based platform that aggregates and books available appointments across the community into a searchable, schedulable inventory of healthcare services. The company describes itself as the nation’s first and only healthcare scheduling exchange and says its customers are providers and health plans. Since the beginning of the year, the platform has booked 150,000 appointments nationwide. The company has 25 employees and cites competitors including ZocDoc and HealthPost. A recent regulatory filing shows it raised $1.5 million in convertible debt, and CEO Tom Cox said the proceeds will be used to expand the network of participating providers. Cox declined to disclose total prior fundraising, but filings show at least $11.3 million raised since 2009. MyHealthDIRECT is a national health services solutions company founded in 2005 by CEO Jay Mason and based in Brookfield, Wisconsin. Its core product is a web-based access management system that connects hospitals, care management organizations, public agencies and community collaboratives to schedule and book timely and appropriate healthcare appointments on behalf of individuals. The company closed a $4M Series B financing round. Investors in the round include healthcare venture capital firms Arboretum Ventures and Chrysalis Ventures, which participated in MyHealthDIRECT’s previous round. The investments will be used to fund the company’s national growth through expansion of its sales, client services and technical resources. My Health Direct offers a Software-as-a-Service platform that connects patients to providers across a community or network. Founded in 2006 and based in Delafield, Wisconsin, the company focuses on web-based access management for healthcare organizations. Its platform is being adopted by health plans, state health agencies, managed care organizations and community health coalitions. The company has reported significant traction with these groups, which value an easy-to-use tool that connects patients to appropriate healthcare professionals while saving time and money. Management plans to use new capital to hire sales and support personnel and to accelerate geographic expansion and growth beyond emergency-room use cases. The company recently completed a $4M Series A financing to support those plans.
