Inbound Health
The business, the turning points, and the decisions behind them.
01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
Inbound Health was a hospital-at-home enablement company spun out of Minneapolis-based Allina Health in 2022 with $20 million in initial funding. It helped health systems and health plans build acute and post-acute care-at-home programs, from business planning and payment models to technology implementation, and offered its Inbound InHome patient-management and analytics platform, which identified, enrolled and monitored patients with integration into electronic medical records. The company raised a $30 million Series B in 2023 led by HealthQuest Capital, bringing total funding past $50 million.
02 / Inbound Health FAILURE REASONS
Failure factors
