Isaac Health Secures $10.5M to Scale Dementia Care Platform

Brain health and dementia care platform Isaac Health has closed a $10.5 million Series A funding round, bringing its total funding to $16.3 million. The investment will fuel the company's nationwide expansion as it addresses the growing dementia crisis affecting more than six million Americans.

Flare Capital Partners led the round, with participation from new investors Black Opal Ventures and Industry Ventures. Existing investors Meridian Street Capital, B Capital, and Primetime Partners also joined the round, demonstrating continued confidence in the company's mission.

Founded in 2022, the New York-based company has developed a comprehensive platform focused on screening, assessing, treating, and providing care management for brain health and dementia care. The platform serves both caregivers and patients while establishing partnerships with payers and providers to ensure integrated care delivery.

The funding will enable Isaac Health to expand several key technology components. These include its virtual care infrastructure and smart care management tools, AI-enabled early detection technology, clinical decision support systems, and data and analytics capabilities. The company also plans to extend its partnerships with health plans and health systems to reach more patients across the country.

"The U.S. is in a public health crisis, facing an oncoming tsunami as the number of people developing dementia surges and millions of us — including those we love — confront the real risk of cognitive decline. Yet our health system remains alarmingly unprepared to meet the complex needs of those living with these conditions and those who care for them," Dr. Joel Salinas, cofounder and chief medical officer of Isaac Health, told MobiHealthNews.

"This funding allows us to scale the best care for this population nationwide — reaching persons living with dementia or at risk, even in geographically isolated and underserved communities. We are revolutionizing brain health care to require zero distance and move 100 times faster to better preserve cognitive health, support caregivers and help people maintain independence and quality of life. In doing so, we are dramatically expanding access to the right care at the right time."

The urgency of Isaac Health's mission is underscored by data from the National Institutes of Health, which reports that dementia affects more than six million Americans and accounts for more than 100,000 deaths yearly. This latest funding round follows Isaac Health's $5.7 million oversubscribed seed round last year, led by Meridian Street Capital and B Capital.

The dementia care technology sector continues to attract investment and innovation. Recent developments include Tombot's $6.1 million Series A funding in June for its robotic puppy companion designed for dementia patients, and various AI-driven solutions from companies like Lenovo, BrainCheck, and Eisai that aim to improve diagnosis, support, and care for individuals with cognitive impairment.
