The Stanford StartX-backed healthcare administration platform developer raised series C financing that took its overall funding to $160m.

Luma Health, a US-based patient communication software developer that counts Stanford-StartX Fund, among its investors, has received $130m in series C funding.

The round was led by growth equity firm FTV Capital and included unnamed existing investors. It increased the company’s overall funding to $160m.

Luma offers a mobile platform that allows healthcare providers to centralise and automate scheduling and communication with patients.
