Startup, New York, NY – 11-50 employees

Sixty percent of our health is affected by our social determinants. Access to community resources (food help, housing services, mental health services) play a pivotal role in the health outcomes for the most vulnerable. As a team, we saw these issues often while working in Baltimore clinics and knew things had to change. Groups that are financially at-risk for populations don't have the tools or data needed to manage these issues or hit expanding quality measures under the affordable care act. This inability results in an additional $85b a year in spending. If we are serious about value in healthcare and the health of our communities, then we must be serious about how we address the social determinants of an individual.

We deploy a web-based tool to identify the social needs in a population, connect patients to the best resources to address their needs, and then support healthcare staff with population/case management features.June 20141. We currently have 7 paying enterprise customers and a sales agreement with a large healthcare vendor.
2. We add 1-2 enterprise customers a month.
3. We have big name customers like Johns Hopkins Healthcare on board.
4. Feedback:
*Quick and easy. Just type in the services the member needs and your location and information is there instantaneously.
*This is a game changer and a market differentiator.
*I was able to find a housing service very quickly. It took me over 3 hours last week. Wow!1. We currently rely on conferences and client referrals to reach customers. We've also established credibility in the research space, presenting at payment reform meetings and panels. We are also involved with PCORI funded research.
2. Philips Healthcare is selling our product to their hospital clients while we focus on the insurer space.
3. We are live in 8 states and are rapidly expanding this year. It is easier to distribute in a market once we are live. Furthermore, the social services space is relatively untouched by software.
