This fundraise follows a record year for Optonome marked by significant onboarding of clinician CEO’s. “In 2020 we made over $500k in revenue. We’ve grown over 750% in the past year. The average Optonome CEO saves over 80% of what it would cost to start with a national franchise.” says MedCity News winner Dennis Dicker, CEO of Optonome.  “As the population of seniors and people with disabilities continues to grow, so does the home care industry. Currently over 20 million older adults in need of long-term health care live within America’s borders as well as 9 million individuals living with a disability indicating an imminent boom in this sector, which is poised to be one of the fastest growing markets, doubling in only 5 years time!  However, what many don’t realize is that most common solutions require them to sell their homes and spend all their savings before moving into an institution where they may even outlive these funds leading to an even more dire situation. The alternative to this is to seek an existing provider who can coordinate home and community services helping people age in place; however, this solution is antiquated and the providers act more like brokers than caregivers charging high fees for connecting families looking for quality long-term support services and care workers.”
