Function Health, a health platform company, has secured $53 million in funding from Andreessen Horowitz and a few A-list celebrities, the company said Tuesday.
The company sells a subscription-based service that allows consumers to undergo more than 100 lab tests and then provides analysis on their heart health, potential signals for cancer, thyroid issues, hormone levels, risk for Alzheimer’ disease, kidney health and other diseases. Function uses in-house clinicians and some from telehealth company SteadyMD to write clinical insights based on the lab work. A doctor will call a patient if there is an emergency indicated within the results.
