WhiteGlove Health, Inc., (www.whiteglove.com) a medical care provider focused on lowering employer healthcare costs, announced today that it has closed a significant round of funding. The round includes an initial $12.9M with an additional $15.3M of warrants over the next two years.

The funding was led by Burrill & Company, a California-based investor group. "WhiteGlove is the clear leader in the irreversible trend toward mobile healthcare, which is reducing a large percentage of the reasons people need to visit doctors and hospitals, while improving employee satisfaction and the bottom lines for corporations," said David Wetherell, managing partner at Burrill & Company. "While WhiteGlove continues to make a strong impact in US markets, we at Burrill & Company look forward to assisting WhiteGlove in expanding its transformative model globally."
"WhiteGlove has enjoyed strong growth over the past few years through widespread adoption by employer groups," stated Bob Fabbio, co-founder and CEO of WhiteGlove Health. "We set out to change healthcare in America and by all accounts that is what we are doing, we are thrilled to have Burrill as a new partner in this endeavor."

Under the program, employers pay for WhiteGlove memberships and WhiteGlove does not charge the employer's health plan for its medical services or the generic Rx medications prescribed for its in-person visits. With hundreds of employers using WhiteGlove, its innovative approach operates at a fraction of the cost of other alternatives is proven to save both employers and their employees and dependents money without adding additional costs to the business or necessitating benefits plan redesign.
