    SimpliFed offers virtual breastfeeding and baby feeding support and broader maternal health care from pregnancy through the postpartum period via a secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform. The company connects parents with a network of baby feeding experts and maternal health specialists and operates a proprietary Maternal Health operating system designed for collaboration with healthcare partners. Its platform uses interoperable infrastructure and API-driven technology to integrate with health plans, providers, partners and health systems for secure data exchange and streamlined workflows. SimpliFed intends to expand those partnerships and scale use of its Maternal Health OS following its Series A. The company is led by founder and CEO Andrea Ippolito and is based in New York City. The recent Series A raised over $10M to support platform growth and partner activation.
