Ferry HealthStrategy & Ops
New York City · Full-time
Why join Ferry Health?
This could be huge if Ferry Health becomes the default way patients book care, with AI handling the back and forth that now sits between patients and providers. Once insurers and clinics route scheduling through it, the company could own the front door to healthcare. Andreessen Horowitz and Index Ventures back the $9M seed in San Francisco, and with a team of 1-10, the first hires would shape the product.
JustBacked's take, based on Ferry Health's own site and its funding and hiring data.
