Filament Labs just raised a $1 million seed round led by Mercury Fund to support their flagship product, Patient IO, an interactive care plan delivery platform for healthcare professionals. Patient IO helps health professionals create fully-customizable care plans that can be seamlessly delivered to patients outside the clinic. Patients receive treatment-specific tasks, reminders and educational content directly on their smartphones, helping health professionals manage patient health behaviors between doctor visits.
Patient IO’s web dashboard lets health professionals track their entire population from their desktop. User-configurable alerts are sent if patients stray too far from their care plan, helping providers focus on their highest risk patients. And unlike other care plan solutions, Patient IO offers a full set of API’s to make integration with existing care management software seamless.
Founded in March 2013, Patient IO is the flagship product of Filament Labs and is already live within Corinthian Health Services’ 20 clinics with over 4,000 actual patients. Another 4,000 patients will be deployed within Arcadia Home Care in June.
In addition to Mercury Fund and partners Corinthian Health Services and Arcadia Home Care, several notable angels contributed to Filament Labs’ round including David Cohen (Techstars), Walt Winshall (PatientsLikeMe), Marc Weiser (RPM Ventures), Wendy Smith (Healthcare), Dr. Farnam Jahanian (University of Michigan), Dean Drako (Eagle Eye Networks), Eric Simone (ClearBlade), Jeff Schox (Schox Law), Larry Abrams (Author), Rick Borenstein (Sequoia Partners), and Russell Hinds (RSH Ventures).
