Columbus, OHIO, Feb. 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — IncludeHealth, a leading provider of musculoskeletal technology solutions, announced today that it has raised $11 million in a recent financing round.

The MSK-OS platform improves the delivery of musculoskeletal care by leveraging computer vision to deliver personalized, measured care through patients’ own devices without the need for wearable sensors, additional hardware, or even downloads. With a simple link, the platform provides an interactive experience for patients to complete their at-home care while collecting objective adherence and performance data to help manage their conditions and improve outcomes.

“I am excited to join the IncludeHealth team and am impressed by the innovative technology and commercial partnerships they have developed to improve the delivery of musculoskeletal care,” said Grant Koster. “I look forward to working with the team to help bring this technology to more patients and healthcare providers.”
