Best Virtual Care Solution
This is the third year in a
row that TimelyCare has been recognized as a best-in-class virtual
care platform by MedTech Breakthrough, an independent market
intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies,
technologies and products in the global digital health and medical
technology market.

honor excellence and recognize the innovation, hard work and
success in a range of health and medical technology categories,
including Telehealth, Clinical Administration, Patient Engagement,
Electronic Health Records (EHR), Virtual Care, Medical Devices,
Medical Data & Privacy, and many more. This year's program
attracted thousands of nominations from over 18 different countries
throughout the world.
"Though most students with mental health issues turn to peers
first, a demand for self-guided support has grown with students
wanting to take charge of their well-being on their own time," said
Steve Johansson, managing director,
MedTech Breakthrough. "TimleyCare is delivering a breakthrough
platform to deliver on this need, enhancing the mental health,
wellness, and overall success of college and university students,

address the complex needs of college students, it is humbling that

providing virtual health and well-being support," said Luke Hejl, CEO and co-founder of TimelyCare.
Founded in 2017, TimelyCare now serves 2.3+ million students,
educators and staff at more than 350 campuses nationwide. The
company recently expanded to serve K-12 educators and offer

Students, faculty and staff had more than a million sessions
with TimelyCare in 2023, and increased demand for self-guided
support drove hundreds of thousands of users to its peer community
and self-care resources. One in every 10 U.S. college students now
has access to TimelyCare for 24/7 support that helps them stay
engaged and retained in school.
New data show by their third TimelyCare virtual counseling

anxiety symptoms achieved clinically significant improvements. And,
those who entered care with clinical symptoms, on average, dropped
a severity ranking (e.g., moderate to mild).
