Venture Summary
Mission Statement
Oatmeal Health's mission is Empowering Health Equity Through Cancer Screening and Early Detection for marginalized communities.
Problem Statement
1 in 2 men and 1 in 3 women in our families will receive a cancer diagnosis during their lifetimes. Unfortunately, 50 percent of these diagnoses occur at a late stage, where survival is at its lowest. We are changing this.
Who is Oatmeal:
Oatmeal Health is an AI-enabled specialty cancer screening as a Service focused on providing early-detection, health equity, and care coordination services for Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) and Health Plans. We are fundamentally changing the lives of marginalized communities through early identification, preventative screening, and comprehensive high-touch value-based care services, starting with lung cancer, and then breast, colorectal, and other cancers in the future.
