At Thea Health, our mission is to modernize how healthcare providers communicate in order to improve patient care.
We are an e-Health startup committed to connecting healthcare providers to improve the quality of care for patients. Thea Health was founded in 2018 from the aspiring goal of improving healthcare provider communication. We realize that there are many gaps for both patients and physicians in the care loop. With our mission to modernize how healthcare providers communicate, we aim to improve patient care and close that loop. With our dedicated team at Thea Health, we have since brought our vision to life and are working with various healthcare providers. Thea Health’s eConsult system streamlines consultations between primary care providers and specialists to enhance access, quality, and cost-effectiveness in patient care.1234
