Strategy & Business Development Associate

Ventricle Health (www.ventriclehealth.com) is a high-growth virtual healthcare startup launching a national cardiologist network providing specialty telemedicine to members with prevalent cardiovascular diseases including heart failure, coronary artery disease and atrial fibrillation. Our mission is to deliver a world-class patient experience in which patients have frictionless access to the best healthcare providers, devices, and therapies.

Chronic disease is difficult to manage. Our best clinical researchers have shown that it can be done, but our healthcare infrastructure is not built for successfully and quickly scaling access to proven care strategies. Through the implementation of remote patient monitoring via connected medical devices and evidence-based therapy, we intend to improve patients’ quality of life across the nation, focusing on heart health.

Ventricle Health is well-funded, advised by industry leaders, and led by former executives from leading high-growth healthcare companies including Evolent, Strive Health, and Unite Us.
