Bilingual telehealth platform for physical and mental healthcare
About MiSalud
MiSalud Health is a digital health company founded in 2021 by Bismarck Lepe, Wendy Johansson, and Cindy Blanco Ochoa to provide accessible and culturally relevant healthcare to the Hispanic community in the U.S. and Mexico. The company was inspired by co-founder Bismarck Lepe's childhood experiences as the son of migrant farm workers, where his family delayed medical care until they returned to Mexico due to costs and language barriers. Similarly, co-founder Cindy Blanco Ochoa, who served as the initial CEO, faced challenges navigating the complex U.S. healthcare system and preferred treatment in Mexico from doctors who understood her language and culture.

MiSalud offers same-day bilingual (Spanish/English) telehealth consultations for both physical and mental health. Its services cover everyday health issues like colds and infections, management of chronic conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure, prescription refills, nutrition coaching, and mental health support for stress, anxiety, and depression. The company operates on a hybrid, B2B model, primarily selling its platform to employers in industries with a high concentration of Spanish-speaking workers, like agriculture, manufacturing, and hospitality. This model begins with on-site health screenings to build trust and then transitions to ongoing virtual care via video, phone, or text. This approach has led to high employee engagement and enrollment rates.
A key feature of MiSalud's platform is its two-tiered clinical approach that leverages licensed physicians and mental health coaches in Mexico for initial consultations and health coaching, while U.S.-based physicians handle diagnoses and prescriptions. The platform also incorporates AI-powered 'copilots' that assist clinicians by taking notes, summarizing visits, and providing real-time recommendations. The company has raised approximately $19 million in funding from investors including Samsung Next, Ulu Ventures, Pivotal Ventures, and Lowercase Capital. Initially led by Cindy Blanco, Bismarck Lepe, a seasoned tech entrepreneur with successful ventures like Wizeline and Ooyala, took over as CEO to scale the company.
