The company will use proceeds to continue to innovation and grow sales.
Led by Jillian Bridgette Cohen, Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder, and Dr. Shawn Garber, Chief Medical Officer and Co-Founder, Virtual Health Partners provides an HIPAA compliant, on-demand platform that focuses on “aftercare” treatment such as nutrition, behavioral health and fitness. Its video chat and messaging system enables patients to have live consults, attend classes, participate in support groups and message with specialists via face-to-face live video conferencing.
In addition, Bluetooth scales and fitness monitors enable syncing within the platform’s app, which is available for all iPhone and Android devices.
The VHP platform is available on a business-to-business basis to providers including hospital systems, gastroenterologists, bariatric surgeons, obesity medicine specialists, plastic surgeons, fertility specialists, medical device, nutritional supplement and wellness companies. Providers then grant their patients access to myvirtualhp, which features on-demand exercise classes, behavioral health programming, personalized scheduling and live nutrition consults.
