Key Points Summary

  • Sevaro Health closed a $39M Series B funding round, led by Valtruis and Intermountain Ventures.
  • This funding validates Sevaro’s mission: physician-led, patient-centered, AI-powered neurology care.
  • Hospitals benefit from 45-second consult times, millions in annual savings, reduced burnout, and higher patient satisfaction.
  • Sevaro’s hybrid model provides scalable coverage across neurology and related specialties, strengthening hospitals’ workforce.
  • Investment supports innovation, analytics, leadership growth, and expanded patient access nationwide.

On September 18, 2025, Sevaro Health announced a major milestone: we closed a $39 million Series B funding round led by Valtruis and Intermountain Ventures. This moment is more than a financial achievement—it’s a powerful validation of the mission of our physicians to transform neurological care and support the clinicians and hospitals who deliver it every day.

As a physician, I’ve always believed that healthcare innovation must be rooted in service. That’s why Sevaro’s name comes from the Sanskrit word Seva, meaning selfless service.

This is a belief that I’ve grown up following and have seen its impact on others. It is with this mindset that Sevaro was built to be the most reliable partner for hospitals, and the best place for neurologists to work. This funding allows us to deepen that commitment and further our impact to serve more patients nationwide and around the world. 

What This Means for Our Hospital Partners

For hospitals and health systems already working with Sevaro, this Series B is a signal: we’re doubling down on our promise to deliver high-quality, physician-led virtual neurology that improves outcomes and strengthens your workforce. 

Our flagship platform, Synapse AI, is at the heart of this transformation. Designed by physicians for physicians, Synapse AI enables real-time collaboration between hospital teams and virtual specialists. It streamlines documentation, automates data capture, and integrates seamlessly with existing EMRs, imaging systems, and workflows

Whether used as a standalone solution or bundled with Sevaro’s virtual neurologists, Synapse AI empowers hospitals to deliver faster, smarter care. 

Measurable Results: Hospitals Are Cutting Costs and Strengthening Care Teams

  • Consult times under 45 seconds, compared to 20 minutes with previous services.
  • Over $4M in savings in the first year for one health system.  
  • Improved patient satisfaction and reduced burnout among clinical teams  

These aren’t just numbers—they’re lives impacted, clinicians supported, and families served in their own communities. 

With this new capital, we’re expanding beyond telestroke and acute neurology. Our virtual services now include: 

Expanding Services That Reduce Transfers and Drive Hospital Growth

  • Post-acute coordination 

We’re also providing flexible coverage into related specialties like Cardiology, Infectious disease, Behavioral health, and Surgery. This hybrid model allows hospitals to scale strategically, reduce transfers, and ensure continuity of care across the entire patient journey. 

Fighting Burnout by Building a Better Place for Neurologists to Work

Healthcare is facing a staffing crisis. Burnout is real, and coverage gaps are growing. Our model doesn’t just fill shifts—it supports clinicians with tools that make their work more sustainable. Synapse AI’s intelligent automation reduces documentation fatigue, while our virtual teams provide flexible coverage that adapts a hospital’s needs. 

Our physicians are trained at top academic institutions and selected not just for their clinical excellence, but for their commitment to compassionate, patient-centered care. We’re proud to be the preferred platform for neurologists nationwide. 

The Hybrid, AI-Powered Future of Neurology Is Here

This Series B is a vote of confidence in our vision, but it’s also a challenge: to keep innovating, keep listening, and keep serving. We’re investing in new technology, expanding our analytics capabilities, and hiring leaders like Jason Bond, our new CFO, who brings deep expertise in healthcare finance and value-based care. 

To our current partners: thank you for trusting us. Your feedback, collaboration, and shared commitment to excellence have shaped Sevaro into what it is today. 

To hospitals considering virtual, the future of neurology is no longer a distant vision— it’s here. It’s hybrid, intelligent, and designed around the patient. With Sevaro, hospitals no longer have to choose between exceptional clinical quality and financial sustainability. We deliver both seamlessly, so that the true beneficiaries are the patients and communities you serve.  

Together, we can build the next chapter of specialty care.

New York, NY, September 18, 2025Sevaro Health, the company transforming neurological care in the United States, today announced the close of a $39 million oversubscribed Series B funding round

The round was led by Valtruis, an investment platform launched by Welsh, Carson, Anderson and Stowe, dedicated to advancing the next generation of healthcare, and Intermountain Ventures, the innovation fund of Intermountain Health, with continued support from early investors APA and Catalyst.

As hospitals grapple with unprecedented staffing shortages, rising patient demand, and the shift toward value-based care, Sevaro provides a proven model that ensures both clinical excellence and financial sustainability. This capital will strengthen Sevaro’s commitment to its health system partners by accelerating innovation, deepening integrations, and expanding its hybrid workforce model.

“Sevaro has built something unique—a scalable model for virtual neuroscience backed by proven results,” said Anna Haghgooie, Managing Partner at Valtruis. “They’re giving hospitals the resources needed to deliver advanced care to communities, without compromise.”

At the heart of Sevaro’s model is Synapse AI—a powerful platform that seamlessly connects hospital teams with virtual specialists throughout the entire patient journey. In addition to acute neurology and neurohospitalist services, Sevaro leads clinical innovation, building turn-key Virtual Institutes of Neuroscience Excellence. As one of the first in the industry to deliver care across the full continuum—from ambulance to ambulatory care—Sevaro offers virtual neurology clinics, physical medicine and rehabilitation expertise, lifestyle coaching, and coordinated care solutions.

Sevaro has revolutionized neurological care in hundreds of hospitals—and now, that same proven model is expanding into other specialties. This hybrid model delivers flexible coverage in neurology and a growing range of specialties including hospitalist medicine, cardiology, infectious disease, behavioral health, surgery, neurosurgery, and neurointerventional radiology.

For hospitals, Synapse AI serves as an extension of their own workforce — helping prevent coverage gaps, reduce burnout, and ensure timely, backup coverage through seamless workflow automation.

Hospitals partnering with Sevaro are already seeing measurable results. One health system saved over $4M in the first year by increasing access to virtual neurology care and reducing unnecessary hospital transfers—keeping patients in their communities. Sevaro partners also report an average of 25 seconds to reach a neurologist, increased referrals, and improved provider satisfaction.

“This funding validates what we’ve believed from day one, that hospitals deserve a model where quality and financial performance go hand in hand,” said Dr. Rajiv Narula, Founder and CEO of Sevaro Health. “Synapse AI isn’t just a solution for coverage, it’s our commitment to building the future of specialty care where physicians are proud to practice, and every patient in the world receives the care they deserve.”

The funding comes as Sevaro expands its leadership team, appointing Jason Bond as CFO and SVP of Strategy, underscoring the company’s commitment to building a category-leading enterprise platform. Bond brings leadership experience from Mount Sinai, Yale New Haven Health, and CityMD, with expertise in health system finance, mergers and acquisitions, and value-based care.
