Health in 2 Point 00, Episode 120 | Particle Health, AliveCor & OMRON, Compass Pathways and Optum

On Episode 120 of Health in 2 Point 00, Jess asks me about health data sharing company Particle Health raising $12 million in an A round, AliveCor and OMRON partnering in a remote monitoring play for combined EKG and blood pressure monitoring, and Compass Pathways scoring $80 million in a B round for psilocybin therapy for treatment-resistant depression. Also, Optum is reportedly acquiring AbleTo for $470 million which provides behavioral telehealth — looks like they’re slowly putting all the pieces together to become a big virtual Kaiser. —Matthew Holt
