Synapticure provides 24/7 telehealth for people with neurodegenerative diseases, delivering virtual neurology and behavioral health care to patients and caregivers from home. How it works: patients book and receive care from neurologists, behavioral health providers, and care coordinators via telehealth, with integrated behavioral health services and up-to-date science guidance to help understand options and access new treatments or clinical trials. Revenue comes from fees for telehealth sessions, paid by patients, insurers, or both. How it stands out: a specialized focus on ALS, Alzheimer’s, Huntington’s, and Parkinson’s, plus care coordination and behavioral health integration, backed by founders with personal ALS experience and doctors who are described as empathetic and knowledgeable. Goal: improve access to expert neurodegenerative care, support patients and caregivers, and connect them with treatments and clinical trials through a science-informed virtual platform.
