Parachute Health runs a digital ordering platform connecting providers, suppliers, and payors to replace fax-based medical equipment ordering in post-acute care.
Parachute Health is a healthcare technology company that operates the Parachute Platform, a digital ordering and connectivity platform for post-acute care. The platform links providers, suppliers, and payors to replace the fax- and phone-based processes traditionally used to order medical equipment and supplies (DME). Its technical work spans healthcare IT platforms, workflow automation, and systems integration across the three parties in the supply chain.
The company was founded in 2013, after the founder's father was harmed by a discarded faxed equipment order following critical back surgery. The inefficiency it targets is not marginal: incidents arising from the fax-based ordering system affect millions of patients each year. Parachute Health describes its goal as making these experiences simple for clinicians and patients.
Parachute Health operates as a fully-remote company with national reach across the United States and roots in the NYC healthcare ecosystem. It positions itself as mission-driven, focused on transforming post-acute care through digital connectivity.
