Healthcare Service Company

VCBeat (WeChat ID: vcbeat) learned from foreign media that on June 18, U.S. local time, healthcare company VirtualHealth completed its Series B financing round, led by Edison Partners. The funds raised in this round will be used to support the company’s development of healthcare systems and to optimize patients’ clinical experience.


VirtualHealth, founded in 2012 and headquartered in New York, USA, is a healthcare company dedicated to addressing comprehensive care challenges.


As the healthcare industry continues to evolve, standalone disease treatment services can no longer meet market demands; patients increasingly seek a comprehensive service system that spans from diagnosis and treatment to post-care management.


Traditional medical services require patients to visit hospitals in person and complete each step of the diagnostic and treatment process under the guidance of healthcare professionals, including registration, prescription issuance, and medication pickup. If unfamiliar with the medical workflow, patients not only become exhausted from rushing between different departments but also tend to minimize their hospital visits due to the cumbersome procedures.


VirtualHealth’s flagship product, HELIOS, is the industry’s first data platform capable of seamlessly connecting all segments of healthcare delivery, dedicated to optimizing traditional medical models through data-driven systems. The platform offers the following advantages: (1) Integration of service systems. VirtualHealth collaborates with major medical institutions and integrates them onto a single platform, enabling patients to search for and locate appropriate facilities to obtain diagnostic services. (2) Online payment system. Some patients are unable to pay all medical expenses in one lump sum due to financial constraints, while visiting medical institutions repeatedly for payments is inconvenient. HELIOS connects with the billing systems of medical institutions, allowing patients to complete payments directly online. (3) Consolidation and processing of medical information. Given the current insufficiency of medical resources, many patients are unable to receive timely diagnoses even after visiting medical facilities. The HELIOS platform consolidates medical information into a unified interface, enabling patients to search for hospitals and other relevant medical information to quickly identify suitable diagnostic channels.


Online Integrated Medical Data Platform: It not only facilitates healthcare institutions in publishing relevant information to attract patients, but also enables patients to receive efficient diagnoses, thereby improving the utilization of medical resources.


Adam Sabloff, Founder and CEO of VirtualHealth, stated, “We look forward to collaborating with both new and existing investors to create shareholder value. The healthcare industry has long been criticized for its postoperative care challenges. Although medical resources remain scarce in certain regions, we are committed to integrating healthcare information to improve this situation, ensuring that patients continue to receive high-quality services after surgery and enhancing their overall diagnostic and treatment experience.”
