One of the top symptoms our patients struggle with? Difficulty sleeping. 😴 That's why we're so excited to partner with BlueSleep, a specialty care digital platform focused on snoring and sleep apnea. BlueSleep patients will access Elektra’s comprehensive telemedicine care platform that includes board-certified clinicians, education, community, and 1:1 support from Elektra Guides (aka "menopause doulas”) while Elektra patients will get solutions for insomnia, snoring, and obstructive sleep apnea.
BlueSleep is psyched to announce a care partnership with Elektra Health, enabling patients to get fast, affordable, and exceptional care for Sleep Apnea and Menopause. Many thanks to Jordan Stern, MD; Jannine Versi; Jacqueline Parisi; and Erin O'Connor for their support! #menopause; #sleepmedicine; #sleepapnea; #womenshealth;

Thank you, Dennis Kamara for having Elektra Co-Founder & CEO Jannine Versi on the Decoding Health podcast! Apple Podcasts: https://lnkd.in/eDYR7Yfx Spotify: https://lnkd.in/eHCa88-a
Half of humanity experiences it, yet we barely discuss it... Time to break the menopause silence! Excited to introduce Jannine Versi, Co-Founder and CEO of Elektra Health, on the latest episode of the Decoding Health Podcast. Backed by leading investors including UPMC Enterprises, Wavemaker Three-Sixty Health, Flare Capital Partners, and Seven Seven Six 7️⃣7️⃣6️⃣, this digital health startup is on a mission to smash the menopause taboo. Period. Jannine's professional journey is nothing short of extraordinary: from shaping policy in the Obama era to driving innovation at Google and Cityblock Health, all built on a Harvard Business School and University of Pennsylvania foundation. Her versatility prompts the question: what can't this powerhouse achieve? Her enthusiasm for transforming menopause care was clear from our first encounter at a Mass General Brigham event—I knew instantly she'd be a perfect podcast guest. And now, you can experience that passion for yourself! 🎧 Listen now (links in the comments)

Grateful for our friends at Nurx from Thirty Madison for doing the critical work of researching how women are responding to the shifting reproductive rights landscape. "In a world that is trying to control care, control access, and control bodies, Nurx stands for putting the control back where it belongs: in women's hands." Read the full report: https://lnkd.in/g99UaujT
Today, we published the results of our Nurx survey: Reproductive Rights Watch 2024: How Women Are Responding to The Shifting Care Landscape. Among the findings, we found more than half of women surveyed are anxious about their reproductive freedoms given the political environment, and 49% of women feel anxiety about accessing in-person care for their reproductive and sexual health. Nurx remains committed to providing specialty healthcare to women that is accessible and personalized - and with the results from this survey, we’re taking action. In a world that is trying to control care, control access, and control bodies, Nurx stands for putting the control back where it belongs: in women’s hands. We’re partnering with others in the women’s healthcare space over the coming months to speak out and help women take action and gain clarity on their reproductive and sexual healthcare choices. How you can help: - View the press release and share data from the survey: - Explore the full report: Nurx.com/repro-rights-2024 - Share your reactions to the survey - do the responses resonate with you?
