VoCare

What VoCare does

VoCare is a privately held Indiana-based medical device company (founded circa 2009-2011, headquartered in Zionsville/Indianapolis) that manufactures and distributes the Vitals360, an FDA 510(k) cleared Class II handheld vital signs monitor. The device integrates six medical peripherals — heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, temperature, blood pressure, ECG heart rhythms, and glucose — into a single Android-based, cellular (4G LTE), Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth-enabled unit (Qualcomm MSM8909 platform with 1GB RAM / 8GB ROM). It functions as a stand-alone wireless hub, supports video telehealth, GPS location tracking, and time-stamped Medicare-grade audit trails, and uploads data automatically to a HIPAA-compliant VoCare Cloud. The product is sold as a Class II device, with the API stack listed as an FDA Class I Medical Device Data System (880.6310), and the company holds ISO 13485 certification and FCC approval.

VoCare's revenue model combines hardware sales of the Vitals360 at $500-$900 per unit (volume-based) with a HIPAA-compliant subscription-based remote patient monitoring platform, the VoCare Specialist Portal, professional services for cloud/EMR integration, and managed services including OTA firmware updates (via Miradore) and a 365-day hot swap warranty. Go-to-market is a hybrid of direct enterprise field sales to hospital systems, home health agencies, RPM companies, and government buyers, and indirect distribution through value-added resellers, group purchasing organizations, wireless carrier partnerships (AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, US Cellular, Aeris), and integration partners (PointClickCare, Harris Healthcare, AWS).

Named customers and prospects include Constellation Software (800-unit purchase), the U.S. Department of Defense (Army, Navy, Marines), the U.S. Department of Justice, American Health Network/Optum, and a base of home healthcare agencies, with stated active deployments across multiple facility types and a production capacity of 5,000 units plus approximately 15,000 units of additional definitive orders. With only 1-10 employees and roughly $8.13M of disclosed funding across 2010-2019, the company is operating at an early-commercial stage, having pivoted from an original FDA-cleared medical tablet product (shelved circa 2016) to the smaller Vitals360 form factor.
