But importantly they have partnered with Wheel Health for the virtual care/tele health services. I don't know anything about them, but I like to know the implications of who is working with BRLI and Dr. Cohen. $30 per test for probably 15 min worth of work. Dr. Cohen has consistently talked about POC.
"Michelle Davey and Griffin Mulcahey founded Wheel in January of 2018, after working together in the telehealth industry and realizing no one was looking out for those at the center of the healthcare engine: the clinicians on the front lines. They decided to do something about it. Wheel became the industry’s first model for delivering high-quality virtual care at scale by empowering clinicians and providing new efficiencies for healthcare companies"
"As the number of venture-backed telemedicine startups continues to increase, there’s a certain amount of trust that needs to be established before choosing one over another. Convenience is only part of the equation.
Also:
One Austin-based startup has found opportunity in making sure those startups stay compliant and safe. Wheel, originally named Enzyme Health, wants to help virtual health care companies scale, and has raised a $13.9 million Series A, led by CRV. The round also had participation from Tusk Ventures, which specializes in helping startups navigate regulatory and legal challenges, as well as Silverton Partners.
CEO and co-founder Michelle Davey launched the company after experiencing first-hand the impact of lacking health care infrastructure. It was “an effort to expand access to quality care for patients after struggling to get the access I needed growing up with chronic autoimmune disease in a rural part of the country,” she told Crunchbase News.
Originally the company was focused on connecting clinicians with virtual care companies, but now is focusing on virtual care compliance more broadly with its new funding. Davey described it as “a marketplace for companies to find a flexible, scalable workforce of qualified clinicians, while ensuring the right clinician can be matched with the right patient on demand.”
This is important, according to the company, because “health care companies are operating on a 1:1 model that limits clinicians to a single organization at a time, which ultimately limits patient access.” With Wheel, the goal is to give clinicians more flexibility and infrastructure in seeing patients.
Health care companies approach Wheel when they’re launching a new virtual care service to the market, Davey said, scaling to new states, or serving a broader patient population. The startup then makes sure the companies are set up from a regulatory, legal and compliance side; before setting them up with a matching system to get the right clinicians to the patients."
