Nema Health, a virtual trauma and PTSD care solution, has secured $14.5 million in Series A funding led by Deerfield Management and CVS Health Ventures. The company's existing investors, including Optum Ventures, .406 Ventures, and GreyMatter, also participated in the round. Nema's therapy model is based on Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and is peer-led, with other trauma survivors working alongside patients throughout their recovery. The program has shown promising results, with 91% of patients experiencing clinical improvement after completing 4-6 weeks of treatment and 82% no longer meeting the criteria for a PTSD diagnosis. Nema's goal is to make its virtual treatment model accessible to the over 13 million Americans struggling with PTSD, and it plans to expand to more states this year. The funding will be used to continue expanding the company's treatment across markets, broaden insurance coverage, and deepen its care offerings.
