Hap­pi­fy Health rais­es $73M to expand its dig­i­tal ther­a­peu­tic care deliv­ery capa­bil­i­ties (Mobi­Health News):

Found­ed in 2012, Hap­pi­fy is best known for dig­i­tal pro­grams that pro­vid­ed auto­mat­ed self-guid­ed sup­port across var­i­ous areas of men­tal health and well­ness, such as stress man­age­ment for employ­ees or health plan mem­bers. Should the user need addi­tion­al sup­port, the plat­form can also facil­i­tate a refer­ral to third-par­ty coach­ing, ther­a­py, telemed­i­cine or oth­er avail­able resources.

In more recent years the plat­form has expand­ed to address more than a dozen oth­er chron­ic con­di­tions, such as heart health and pso­ri­a­sis, that can over­lap with men­tal health conditions…

“Today, our plat­form cov­ers more than 20 mil­lion lives, with more than 5 mil­lion indi­vid­u­als hav­ing received care through our plat­form,” said Tomer Ben-Kiki, cofounder and CEO of Hap­pi­fy, in a statement.

“We are also work­ing with five lead­ing phar­ma­ceu­ti­cal part­ners on dig­i­tal ther­a­peu­tic solu­tions and four out of the five nation­al pay­ers to help sup­port their mem­bers’ men­tal health and chron­ic ill­ness needs. We look for­ward to reach­ing an even big­ger audi­ence with the sup­port of our new partners.”
