Digital Health Strategies Closes $1.55M Series A to Expand Patient Loyalty and Engagement Platform

Digital Health Strategies, a Washington, D.C. and New York–based healthcare technology and data solutions company, has made a significant stride in its growth journey by closing a Series A funding round aimed at expanding its patient loyalty and engagement platform known as Share of Health™. The funding — secured in late 2023 and reflecting both investor confidence and strategic support — is intended to bolster the company’s ability to help health systems and health plans enhance care coordination, deepen patient relationships and drive long‑term loyalty through enhanced data‑driven solutions.

Founded in 2014 by co‑CEOs John Simpson and Ben Texter, Digital Health Strategies has built a reputation for combining proprietary data intelligence with technology services to help healthcare organizations better understand and engage their patient populations. The company’s solutions are used by some of the largest health systems in the United States, including Geisinger, Hackensack Meridian Health and Providence Health, and its rapid growth earned it a spot on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest‑growing private companies in America prior to its Series A funding.

The Series A financing, while not publicly disclosed in exact dollar terms by the company leadership at the time, was estimated by industry data aggregators to be around $1.55 million, making it a meaningful early investment in Digital Health Strategies’ long‑term expansion.

This strategic investment round was led by a group of prominent healthcare industry veterans who brought not only capital but also deep operational and sector expertise to the table. David Schultz, Founder & CEO of MediaLogic — a national marketing and strategic communication firm specializing in healthcare, finance and technology — served as the lead investor and took a seat on Digital Health Strategies’ Board of Directors following the closing of the round. Alongside Schultz, the funding cohort included Michael H. Focht, Sr., former President and Executive Vice Chairman of Tenet Healthcare; T. Dennis Jorgensen, a former senior executive at Tenet Healthcare; Bob Dresing, healthcare investor and executive with a background leading CareMetx and TheraCom; Mark Hansan, Executive Chairman of CareMetx; and Craig Goodman, a healthcare consultant and investor.

These investors bring decades of combined expertise in healthcare operations, strategy and digital transformation, positioning Digital Health Strategies to leverage more than financial backing — they contribute industry perspective that the company leadership has described as critical to navigating the evolving needs of health systems and care providers increasingly focused on patient experience.

According to the company’s executives, the infusion of strategic capital supports expansion of Digital Health Strategies’ Share of Health™ platform, which is designed to help client organizations maximize the lifetime value of patient relationships by combining analytics, personalized communication and integrated workflows that tie into clinical systems and operational goals. By focusing on loyalty and retention alongside care coordination, the company aims to help providers close care gaps and improve health outcomes while also stimulating revenue growth through enhanced patient engagement.

Investment in Digital Health Strategies comes at a time when digital health venture funding remains robust overall, with billions of dollars flowing into startups that offer data‑driven tools and platforms to improve healthcare quality, efficiency and outcomes. The company’s strategic backers have emphasized that the need for solutions that deepen patient loyalty and support value‑based care models will only grow as health systems contend with increasing complexity and competition.

Digital Health Strategies’ leadership has noted that this Series A funding round represents a validation of both its Share of Health™ approach and its broader vision to support health systems and payers with technology that integrates data science and patient engagement. With this capital, the company is focused on enhancing its technological capabilities, expanding client reach and exploring new ways to connect patients more meaningfully with the care they need.

As of early 2026, Digital Health Strategies remains a privately held, venture‑backed healthcare technology provider with a mission to transform patient engagement through data intelligence and personalized activation — a mission reinforced by its Series A funding and the experienced group of investors now aligned with its growth strategy.
