Don't Just Sell Video Visits: Build a Healthtech Revenue Engine
What we learned at a high cost is that telehealth is not just about video visits, but about establishing a scalable revenue model. Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Before founding Bask Health, my brother and I once pitched a telehealth startup idea to a VC with a 40-slide deck and a "disrupt healthcare" tagline. He stared at us like we were pitching a smoothie truck. Turns out, nobody cares how "virtual" your care is if you can't explain your revenue model in under 30 seconds. That was a $22,000 lesson in developer costs, regulatory hurdles and hubris. So here's what we wish someone had told us on day one: you're not selling video calls, you're building a real business. In 2025, that means more than convenience. It means unit economics that hold up, multiple buyers beyond just patients and infrastructure that doesn't implode at scale. Below, we'll break down the four core revenue pillars in modern telehealth and how to stress-test each one before you burn through your seed round. Join top CEOs, founders and operators at the Level Up conference to unlock strategies for scaling your business, boosting revenue and building sustainable success. The Nut Graf Telehealth businesses built for 2025 and beyond can't survive on DTC visits alone. The ones that scale combine four revenue streams: Direct-to-Consumer, Employer, Payor and Ancillary, into a model that balances margin, compliance and demand. Here's how to structure yours and how to kill what isn't working, fast. 1. Don't just sell to patients: Land the employer account When we built our first virtual clinic, we assumed individuals would pay out of pocket for convenience. They did, but not in the volumes needed to cover CAC. The real ROI showed up when we signed our first self-insured employer. That one deal brought in 3x the monthly revenue of our entire DTC base. It was the clearest signal we'd seen: B2B revenue can subsidize your B2C growth. What works: Target companies struggling with chronic care costs or absenteeism.; Bundle care options: behavioral health, dermatology, menopause, etc.. Offer reporting dashboards and custom onboarding. Watch for: Stay HIPAA-compliant and FMLA-aware, especially if you're integrating with existing employer EAPs; Procurement cycles that take forever if you don't have a warm intro. Expect to hire B2B sales muscle early, or founder-led selling won't scale. Related: Healthtech Is the New Healthcare 2. Payor reimbursement is a slow game. Play it anyway We avoided insurance in the early days. Too slow. Too complex. But here's the truth: the payor model is hard to start and impossible to ignore. Yes, CMS still reimburses for telehealth, but the rules shift constantly. In 2025, audio-only visits are covered under limited conditions. Some CPT codes only apply to rural areas. And even if you're eligible, collecting payment is a marathon of prior auths and claim resubmissions. What works: Start small: pilot with Medicaid MCOs or carve-outs; Get surgical with your billing codes (RTM, CCM, POS-10, etc.); Hire someone who lives in your state's MAC guidance. Watch for: 60–90 day payment cycles (prepare your burn rate accordingly); Denials for bad documentation or misused modifiers; Overestimating what "covered by insurance" actually means. Related: Why Entrepreneurs Can't Rely on Traditional Retirement Plans (And What to Do Instead) 3. Ancillary services make or break unit economics We once sold $49 telehealth visits with a $120 CAC. It was cute until we looked at our bank account. We fixed it by integrating ancillary services, labs, pharmacy delivery, diagnostics, which turned $49 tickets into $149+. Patients don't want five apps. They want one seamless care journey. Bundling services increases LTV, improves outcomes, and gives you new margin layers to play with. What works: Partner with compounding pharmacies and lab networks. Use API-first infrastructure to automate fulfillment. Track where the drop-off happens between consultation and care. Watch for: State-specific lab-direct and prescribing laws; Ongoing logistics management (especially for shipping); Upfront build time, your developers will hate this unless you buy instead of build. 4. Stress-test your margins with this 4P matrix Before we launch any new care line, we run it through what we call the 4P Matrix: Category questions to ask Patient: Who pays? Individual, employer, or insurer? Payor: Which CPT codes or bundles apply? What's reimbursable? Partner: Are there labs, pharmacies, or vendors to integrate with? Peripherals: What are the add-ons? (RPM, async care, diagnostics?) If any one "P" is weak, you'll feel it in your burn rate within 60 days. If two are weak, you're bleeding cash. And if you can't tighten the loop within one quarter, sunset the service. Don't pitch telehealth. Pitch an economic engine. Investors don't want to hear about your "care journey." Employers don't care how empathetic your UI is. And patients? They want outcomes, fast. If you want to build a profitable telehealth company in 2025: Get clear on who pays and why. Design services that integrate seamlessly. Obsess over margin layers, not marketing buzzwords; And for the love of Wi-Fi, don't duct-tape your HIPAA compliance. Telehealth isn't a shortcut; it's infrastructure. But if you build it right, you're not just riding a trend. You're building healthcare's new backbone.

Experiment Recreates The Universe's Very First Chemical Reactions
The first chemical reactions in the wake of the Big Bang have been recreated for the first time in conditions similar to those in the baby Universe. A team of physicists Led by Florian Grussie of the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics (MPIK) in Germany has reproduced the reactions of helium hydride ion (HeH+), a molecule made from a neutral helium atom fusing with an ionized atom of hydrogen. These are the first steps that lead to the formation of molecular hydrogen (H2); the most abundant molecule in the Universe and the stuff from which stars are born. The new work, therefore, elucidates some of the earliest processes that gave rise to the Universe as we know it today. Related: The First Molecular Bond in The Universe Has Finally Been Detected in Space The birth throes of the Universe some 13.8 billion years ago produced a hot, dense soup of fundamental particles simmering at temperatures too high for atoms to form. It took about 380,000 years for nuclei and electrons to lose enough energy to congeal into the very first elements. Those elements were the lightest the periodic table has to offer; about 75 percent hydrogen, 25 percent helium, and trace amounts of lithium. Hydrogen continues to dominate the Universe's ingredient list today, as clouds of molecular gas that give birth to the stellar furnaces from which the heavier elements are born, either through fusion or violent explosions. None of that, however, could happen without HeH+ – a molecule that scientists believe played a huge role in cooling the Universe enough so that the molecular clouds could contract enough to attain the density required to collapse under their own gravity to form the seeds of baby stars. That's because HeH+ has a comparatively large separation between its positive and negative charges. In the presence of an electric field, a molecule with a large charge separation undergoes an energy shift that helps dissipate heat, which means HeH+ theoretically played a key role in paving the way for the formation of the first stars. The researchers performed their experiments at the Max Planck Institute's Cryogenic Storage Ring, a facility designed to perform experiments in a vacuum environment at temperatures just a few degrees above absolute zero, around -267 degrees Celsius (-449 Fahrenheit), mimicking the conditions of deep space. There, they carefully studied interactions between HeH+ and a hydrogen atom with one extra neutron in its nucleus, known as deuterium. An interaction between HeH+ and deuterium generates a neutral helium atom and a molecule consisting of one neutral hydrogen atom and one charged deuterium atom (HD+), with lower energy levels than the original components. Within the storage ring, the researchers fired two beams of particles; one with HeH+ molecules, the other with neutral deuterium. They changed the speed of the two beams to alter the energy at which the particles collided as a proxy for temperature to see if temperature played a role in the reaction rate. It did not. The rate at which the reaction took place remained steady, regardless of the proxy temperature – suggesting that the role HeH+ played in the early Universe did not decline as cooling unfolded, and that its role in the formation of the first generation of stars was a significant one. "Previous theories predicted a significant decrease in the reaction probability at low temperatures, but we were unable to verify this in either the experiment or new theoretical calculations by our colleagues," physicist Holger Kreckel from the MPIK explains. "The reactions of HeH+ with neutral hydrogen and deuterium therefore appear to have been far more important for chemistry in the early Universe than previously assumed." The research has been published in Astronomy & Astrophysics.
