Medopad, which does something related to gathering health information from wearables, pads its bank account with $25 in new capital, apparently raised at a valuation of around $200 million. There is too much capital and when there is, it does stupid stuff.
In a short-lived announcement, Human Longevity births a fresh $30 million in capital to support the company's business of combining information to help assess individual's health, etc.
Twistle, a provider of automation for communication and care management processes, whistles up a fresh $16 million in funding. Oh, and did I mention that it is "disruptive".
DAS Health, which helps providers install and operate their information systems, has acquired Automated Medical Systems, which offers similar services.
Healthcare.com, which offers software to help consumers compare and purchase health insurance and Medicare plans, garners a fresh $18 million in funding.
