Nominated by: Blake Wu, NEA (an investor)<\/p>\n
Total funding: $101 million, according to the company.<\/p>\n
What it does: Diana Health offers women’s healthcare across gynecology, maternity, menopause, and wellness, with virtual and in-person services.<\/p>\n
Why it’s promising: Diana partners with hospitals to design and operate women’s care programs, pairing nurse-midwives with specialists like OB-GYNs and mental health clinicians for care in the hospitals or at outpatient clinics. The startup raised $55 million in Series C funding in September, led by HealthQuest Capital, to keep expanding its footprint. Diana Health now works with nine hospitals in Tennessee, Florida, and Texas.<\/p>\n
Wu noted that women’s health, especially maternity care, has historically been a challenging area for startups. He said Diana’s model yields better health outcomes for patients while controlling costs.<\/p>\n
“We’ve evaluated dozens of startups in the space, and our view is that Diana’s clinical model is unique and highly differentiated,” he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nominated by: Blake Wu, NEA (an investor) Total funding: $101 million, according to the company.
