Oshi Health Raises $23M in Series A Funding

Oshi Health, a NYC-based virtual specialty care company focused on gastrointestinal (GI) health, raised $23m in Series A funding.

The round was co-led by Flare Capital Partners, Bessemer Venture Partners and Frist Cressey Ventures with a strategic investment from CVS Health Ventures. Takeda Digital Ventures, which has funded the company since its inception, participated in the round along with health industry veterans, including author and athenahealth cofounder Jonathan Bush, Nat Turner and Zach Weinberg of Operator Partners and Flatiron Health, serial healthcare entrepreneur and IBD patient advocate Eric M. Stone, and Russell Glass, the CEO of Headspace Health.

The company intends to use the funds to scale its virtual-first, integrated approach to GI care delivery.

Led by Oshi Health CEO Sam Holliday, Oshi Health provides a redesigned gastrointestinal care experience via a virtual, patient-centered care delivery model built to provide diagnosis and multidisciplinary care for GI conditions, and to empower people to gain significant and lasting control of their symptoms and improve their quality of life. Its evidence-based, whole-person care protocols can diagnose patients and provide treatment, including often-neglected dietary and psychosocial interventions.

The company works with innovative employers and health insurance partners to scale access to their employees and members as a covered benefit, in turn, reducing overall healthcare cost and improving productivity in life and at work.
