Rock Health exists to fund and support entrepreneurs working at the intersection of healthcare and technology. Put simply, our mandate is impacting. They want to make healthcare massively better for every human being—driving down the cost to deliver improved services to more people. Massively better means incredible change—it’s improvement by an order of magnitude or more along every dimension—healthcare that is incredibly functional, reliable, convenient, and yes, inexpensive. Ultimately, it looks like a system that they love.
Their portfolio companies are tackling problems in mental health, smoking cessation, hospital and payer administration, and diabetes, in addition to many, many others. As early stage investors, they seek to invest in relentless problem solvers, and support them in growing scalable, sustainable businesses making a positive impact.
Their internal mantra is to act as an early employee, not as an advisor or mentor. That means getting our hands dirty doing actual work. They support our companies on a wide range of business issues, including fundraising, go-to-market planning, customer development, business development, contracting, pricing, marketing, communications, and PR.
Rock Health partners span medical institutions, corporate strategic partners, and venture capital firms—they’re our allies who provide our companies with varied perspectives and strategic insights on the healthcare industry.
