Company Spotlight: Wellthy
Caregiving is the invisible load that breaks backs and balance sheets. Wellthy has been turning that chaos into coordination since 2014, built out of lived experience that cuts deeper than market analysis. Co-founder and CEO Lindsay Jurist-Rosner spent nearly three decades caring for her mother with progressive multiple sclerosis while climbing at Microsoft. Co-founder and CTO Kevin Roche brought the engineering muscle to turn that reality into a scalable platform. This is not empathy as branding, it is infrastructure born from necessity.
Wellthy delivers through a Care Concierge model that feels human while moving at enterprise speed. Families get matched with social workers, nurses, doulas, and patient advocates who untangle appointments, insurance, and logistics. Backup Care steps in when the regular caregiver cannot, ensuring work and life keep moving. Proprietary navigation tools bring visibility for families and employers without stripping away the empathy that drives trust. It is not technology versus people. It is both, fused in motion.
The traction is not theoretical. Wellthy now supports more than 2 million sponsored lives across 150 plus employer clients, including over 35 Fortune 500 companies. Its network of 350,000 vetted providers spans 190 countries. Partnerships with Salesforce, Snap, Best Buy, Cisco, and Hilton prove the service scales across industries. This is a category leader with data and deployment to show it.
Capital has followed conviction. Wellthy has raised 78 million dollars to date, including a 25.5 million dollar Series V in May 2023 co-led by Hearst, Eldridge, and Citi Impact Fund with participation from ReThink Impact and NEA. From 2019 to 2022, covered lives surged twentyfold, while revenue jumped seventeen times. Employers are seeing outcomes measured in improved mental health, reduced absenteeism, and 200,000 dollar ROI per case.
The leadership bench is deep. Alongside Lindsay Jurist-Rosner and Kevin Roche stand Peter Goody, Chief Product and Experience Officer; Nabeel Meghji, Chief Product Officer; Dana Pischera, SVP of Care; Eileen Bonney, SVP of Client Success; Alexander Newbold, CAO; Tasha Gaskins, Director of Care; Raffaella Rubino, Director of Care, Global; Sam Kamper, Director of People; and Trish Jean, DEI Council Co-Chair. Headquartered in New York but remote-first, more than 200 team members rally around values of tenacity, collaboration, continuous improvement, and empathy that shows up in every interaction.
Strategically, Wellthy has locked in a B2B path by embedding with employers and health plans, positioning itself at the center of a care economy under strain. The 2023 acquisition of Lantern expanded services into end-of-life planning, giving families continuity from first questions to last paperwork. Proprietary data sharpens best practices, while national policy work and expert-led forums signal leadership beyond product. The name Wellthy is the tell. The real wealth it delivers is time back, energy back, and confidence restored.
