Hopscotch Primary Care has raised $53 million in Series D financing to expand its technology-enabled primary care platform across rural communities after reaching more than 15,000 patients in the Southeastern U.S. Lead investors include 8VC and Town Hall Ventures. Existing investors aMoon Fund, Citi Impact Fund, Alumni Ventures and K2 HealthVentures also participated. New investors include Autism Impact Fund, Kleiner Perkins Chairman John Doerr, Heritage Provider Network founder Dr. Richard Merkin, and the Leon Levine Foundation.
Founded in 2021, Hopscotch currently operates 12 clinical locations, with its largest concentration in rural Western North Carolina.
The company plans to use the funding to deepen access within its existing region, enter additional rural markets and expand its technology-enabled operating infrastructure.
Hopscotch is addressing communities where physician retirements, hospital closures and other healthcare access challenges have made primary care increasingly difficult to obtain.
Its model includes same-day visits, 24/7 access to care teams and proactive patient outreach supported by technology designed to reduce administrative workloads for clinicians.
Hopscotch reported a Net Promoter Score of 89 and patient retention consistently above 90%.
The company also said its management of medical expenses has produced more than a 25-percentage-point improvement in medical loss ratios for patients over their first two years.
Hopscotch said those results, together with its operating model, have already resulted in profitable operations in Western North Carolina.
The company’s strategy combines in-person clinicians in rural communities with technology intended to increase their capacity and support value-based care.
The Series D will allow Hopscotch to bring that model to additional small towns while continuing to develop its clinical and technology infrastructure.
KEY QUOTES:
“At Hopscotch, we believe that access to world-class primary care is the building block of healthier patients and communities. We recruit dedicated clinicians to rural communities and empower them with advanced technology to deliver access where other companies do not operate.”
“This new funding comes at an inflection point for Hopscotch, and for rural health care as a whole. We are accelerating our growth into more small towns while improving outcomes, delighting patients, and building a sustainable future for the communities we serve.”
Tim Gronniger, CEO Of Hopscotch Primary Care
“The best use of AI is to amplify human potential. Hopscotch is giving clinicians the tools to care for more patients with greater insight, while preserving the trusted relationships at the heart of primary care. That’s exactly the kind of technology that can transform healthcare in rural America and fundamentally improve lives.”
John Doerr, Chairman Of Kleiner Perkins
“Healthcare shouldn’t just show up when something’s wrong. At Hopscotch, we build lasting relationships with our patients: knowing them, staying connected, and helping them stay healthy over time, not just responding when they’re sick. It’s a model that works because it’s built around the patient, not around the visit, and that’s what lets us grow without losing the relationship at the center of it.”
Dr. Aditi Mallick, Chief Medical Officer Of Hopscotch Primary Care
