NEW YORK, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES, July 22, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Trusty.care today announced it closed a $4m series Seed round at a valuation of $15.5m. This round of funding was led by Gaingels, ManchesterStory Ventures, and Rebalance Capital with the participation of Boro Capital and various family offices and Angel investors.

“Trusty.care has built an equally scalable and impactful way to help solve a sizable injustice — senior bankruptcy from out-of-pocket medical expenses. Their differentiated data set addresses the abusive insurance product placement crisis, solving a true market problem. We couldn’t be more proud to be part of this journey,” says Josh Tanenbaum, Managing Partner, Rebalance Capital

“As the largest investor network focused on supporting and investing in the best venture-backed companies that embrace and value diverse leadership, including LGBTQ+, Gaingels is proud of participating in this financing and is resolved on helping the company grow and scale while strengthening its prospects of success by building a culture that reflect the diversity of its executive teams, staff, and customers,” says Lorenzo Thione, Gaingels’ Managing Director.

“We are honored to work with these investors to transform the way people in the U.S. purchase insurance products,” says Joseph Schneier, CEO at Trusty.care. “Our investors are part of making our vision a reality: reducing bankruptcy due to out-of-pocket healthcare costs.”

This new round of funding will be used to support Trusty.care’s growth and to expand its product offering. Specifically, the areas that the company will focus on are:

• Sales to regional carriers
• Growth within our core market of FMOs and agencies
• Building our member retention toolkit

In the last 12 months, Trusty.care has grown from 100 professionals to 37,000 professionals using Trusty.care to power their business. This round brings Trusty.care’s total Seed stage funding to $8.5m.
