Building a medtech brand?
We run PR and public affairs for companies in this market: from category launches and funding announcements to NHS procurement and regulatory communications.
Accurx
NHS patient communications
Patient access & engagement
The near-ubiquitous messaging and online-triage platform connecting NHS GP practices, and increasingly hospitals, directly with patients.
The read
Accurx provides messaging, online triage and appointment tools that connect NHS GP practices directly with patients, and reports use across 98% of GP practices in England. In June 2023 it acquired Induction Switch to extend into hospital and trust communications.
Its Series A and B rounds, from Atomico and Lakestar respectively, took total disclosed funding to roughly $50m, with no further round confirmed since 2021.
The Bridgehead view
Accurx's near-total GP-practice penetration means its next growth chapter is really about secondary care: whether it can repeat that ubiquity inside NHS trusts is the story that will define whether it stays a primary-care tool or becomes NHS-wide infrastructure.
