B2B2C is as mangled as it sounds
October 26, 2015
"B2B2C is as mangled as it sounds," Amino Health founder David Vivero testified during our Consumer Adoption webinar. Luckily the B2C healthcare space saw some huge advancements last week.
- Amino debuted to give patients a clearer picture of their health using 3.9B healthcare data points.
- For the 32% of consumers considering getting genetic services, the FDA cleared 23andMe to re-launch their health information product.
- Lantern introduced its CBT-based mobile stress program (because let's face it, being a founder can be one of the least healthy times in life).
