Additional Info
The startup has been working on digital infrastructure for the healthcare industry, starting with medical reports. Lifen started with messaging in the healthcare industry as the company saw an opportunity for an upgrade. The startup built a document platform that works with several electronic messaging protocols designed for medical records. The company tries to detect key information automatically to turn documents into structured data. For instance, the startup tries to automatically identify the name of the patient as well as sender information. And now, the company wants to go beyond messaging with a full-fledged digital platform for the healthcare industry. With today’s funding round, the company plans to hire more than 200 employees over the next 18 months. By 2025, the startup wants to work with 1,500 hospitals and 200 e-health solutions. And each customer is using Lifen intensively as it represents 2 million medical documents sent to 240,000 doctors each month. Healthcare facilities can use Lifen to start using other e-health apps. Lifen has its own app store that references all apps that work with Lifen’s user management system and connect with Lifen.
