About Author

The first platform to provide comprehensive care and treatment for Medicare Advantage recipients with severe mental health and substance use disorders.

Why We Invested

A staggering 57.8 million Americans, are thought to live with some form of mental illness, more than 20% of the adult population. Even more troubling, $225.1 billion was spent on mental health treatment services in 2019 (~$4k per person). The market opportunity to develop a robust, effective SMI platform was evident. Working closely with a significant launch customer, Author Health introduced a virtual-first hybrid care model led by the Dr. Katie Hobbs Knutson, an extraordinary CEO who we are honored to support.
