We’re transforming healthcare by building a comprehensive system of care in the home.

With 40 years of combined experience in bedside and healthcare management, emergency room physician Dr. Mark Prather and physician assistant Kevin Riddleberger join forces to create the first iteration of a game-changing healthcare delivery company: True North Health Navigation.

These entrepreneurs set out with the goal of creating a new kind of healthcare, one that improved patient outcomes, provided better patient and provider experiences, and lowered medical costs.

With a proof of concept intact, co-founders Mark and Kevin and their small team re-brand to DispatchHealth. They successfully pitch the concept of in-home care to the Colorado healthcare community, spanning payers, senior living facilities, health systems, and more.

Following the first patient visit, co-founders Mark Prather and Kevin Riddleberger close on the company’s seed round of funding in October 2015, totaling $3.6 million.

DispatchHealth expands its in-home care model to Colorado Springs, CO, Phoenix, AZ, Richmond, VA, Las Vegas, NV, Houston, TX, and Oklahoma, OK. The organization also partners with three health systems: Baystate Health in Springfield, MA, Texas Health Resources in Dallas, TX, and MultiCare in Tacoma, WA.

DispatchHealth also closes on its second round of financing, gaining $33 million to open additional locations across the U.S. and expand treatment capabilities for patients with advanced medical needs.

DispatchHealth is operating in 18 markets across 12 states when the COVID-19 pandemic brings the country to its knees. The organization quickly rises to the challenge, focusing on providing care to the most vulnerable populations.

DispatchHealth raises $135.8 million in Series C financing, with the goals of expanding to new markets, launching additional services, and treating more patients than ever.

In March 2021, DispatchHealth solidifies its status as a health-tech unicorn, gaining $200 million in Series D financing, resulting in a valuation of over $1.7 billion.

DispatchHealth becomes one of the nation’s largest providers of in-home imaging with its acquisition of Professional Portable X-Ray in April 2021 and Dynamic Mobile Imaging in December 2021.
