At Athelas we're bringing simple, life-changing health care products and medical billing services to patients and providers around the globe.
The future of healthcare is at home - we are a team of technologists building the next generation of care management at the intersection of hardware and software. We won’t stop until we’ve brought the world class tools of a hospital to your home.
We develop hardware software, and diagnostics to improve the lives of chronic care patients (cancer, hypertension, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder).
In the US, 80% of healthcare spend occurs in 20% of patients. We aim to drastically reduce this cost through modern devices and preventative care services. Our core device (FDA Class 2 cleared) uses machine-learning trained on cell classification to allow chronic patients to monitor their white blood count at home. Our core software product is a platform to help doctors monitor vitals, trends, etc. of such patients, so that physicians and patients can stay aligned without direct interaction.
We also have a fast growing SaaS Revenue Cycle Management business that provides revenue intelligence for hundreds of healthcare businesses, from small clinics to large health systems. Our state-of-the-art dashboard Athelas Insights provides unparalleled understanding into the financial health of your practice to help you with all aspects of RCM including denials, working A/R, research, and more.
We've raised $132 million at a $1.5 billion valuation from top tier investors such as General Catalyst, Sequoia Capital, Y Combinator, and Initialized.
