• Startups have raised billions on the promise of disrupting healthcare.
  • To win over investors, startups often present their businesses through a slide deck.
  • Here are the presentations obtained by Insider that healthcare startups have used to raise millions.

In the past few years, investors have bet billions on healthcare startups looking to disrupt the industry. 

In 2022, that activity cooled off as the market stumbled and companies postponed their public debuts. Rock Health reports that digital health startups raised $15.3 billion in 2022, just half of what they raised in 2021.

Winning over investors can be a long process, and it often involves a slide deck that lays out what the startup does, and where the company is heading. 

Insider rounded up all the presentations we’ve published that healthcare startups have used to raise cash from investors. 

Early on, startups sell investors on often newly tested ideas

When startup founders pitch investors ahead of a seed or Series A round, they haven’t gotten far off the ground. 

Presentations can be helpful at laying out the how they plan to take on a particular business.

For instance, a dad used this presentation to raise millions to give kids with ADHD and autism the same kind of therapy that helped his son.

And check out the 13-slide presentation heart-health startup Miga Health used to raise $12 million in seed funding. 

Others can use the presentations to share their new approaches, like Vori, which raised $45 million for a former neurosurgeon’s approach to solving Americans’ back pain.

They can also show how a startup might stand out in a competitive field.  Here’s the 12-slide presentation Angle Health, a health-insurance startup, used to land $58 million after its public competitors tumbled. 

And Brightside used this presentation to break through a crowded field of mental health startups and convince VCs to invest $24 million.

By Series B, startups are looking for a chance to grow big

Late-stage rounds can give startups the fuel to scale or gear up for a public debut

The presentations used to secure later rounds of funding can be used to show investors how far the startup’s come, and what’s ahead.

Often, the investors start to look different as well, and startups can find themselves pitching asset managers or industry incumbents, like health insurers. 

For instance, Tiger Global and Blackstone backed decentralized trials startup Medable in its Series D.

Tiger Global — alongside health insurer Humana — also backed the at-home healthcare startup Dispatch Health in its Series D. 

And hot mental-health startup NOCD won over investors including Cigna Ventures in January with this presentation. 

Meanwhile, Omada Health used this presentation to raise $192 million as it gears up for an IPO. Digital health startup Tebra similarly used this 23-slide presentation to raise $72 million as it prepares to go public. 

Insurer Centene has backed some later-stage rounds, including Hazel Health’s Series C and Vida Health’s $110 million round. The upstart shared the presentation that helped it raise the funds toward a new vision for the hardest kind of healthcare.

The presentations at this stage can help land startups like Aledade high valuations. Aledade raised $100 million in a round that valued the company at $2.1 billion.

Sometimes, if the founder is well-known, companies might even get unsolicited funding. This happened to Glen Tullman’s new startup Transcarent, which raised a $200 million Series C round that valued the company at $1.62 billion.
