About the Company

Carbon Health

Primary, urgent, and telehealth care platform

Carbon Health provides primary, urgent, and virtual care through a hybrid model that combines offline clinics with an online platform. Patients can book same-day appointments and receive care either in person or via a mobile app, enabling convenient access to healthcare. The service works by offering flexible scheduling, via a mobile app and clinics, with care delivered through physicians who conduct visits—billing is handled as standard service fees paid out-of-pocket or through insurance, and the company also offers prescription delivery. Unlike many providers, Carbon Health does not require memberships and accepts most major insurance plans, broadening access for a wide range of patients. The goal is to make healthcare simpler and more reachable by leveraging technology to connect patients with timely, quality care wherever they are.
