Paloma Health Secures Funding to Enhance NHS Services
Paloma Health, an ambitious startup based in London, UK, is making significant strides in the healthtech sector with its innovative use of artificial intelligence to streamline access to crucial NHS health services. Recently, the company successfully secured £2M in Pre-Seed funding to further its mission of reducing wait times for patients. The funding round was spearheaded by Triple Point Ventures, with additional support from Heal Capital, and contributions from prominent angel investors including Pam Garside and James Allgrove. This financial backing will play a pivotal role in facilitating the launch of their initial NHS service, which aims to provide expedited access to autism assessments for children and young people within just four weeks.
At the helm of Paloma Health is CEO Dr Mark Jenkins, along with co-founder Darshak Shah, both of whom are committed to leveraging technology to enhance the accessibility and quality of NHS physical and mental health services across England.
The company's first focus is on delivering timely autism assessment services, designed to significantly improve the experience for both families and their children in need of care. By employing a blend of clinical knowledge and advanced technology, Paloma Health is poised to transform the way these services are delivered, providing much-needed speed and efficiency to the process.
In addition to their initial autism assessment service, Paloma Health has ambitious plans for the future. They aim to broaden their offerings to encompass faster access to care for various conditions, such as ADHD, dementia, allergies, and dermatological concerns. To support healthcare professionals, the company is also in the process of developing a suite of software solutions and AI tools designed to alleviate the administrative burdens faced by clinicians. This multi-faceted approach not only promises to improve service delivery but also aims to enhance overall patient experiences within the NHS framework.
