Founded in 2022, The Wound Company aims to improve outcomes for wound patients through technology and “high-touch” personalized care.
For Nima Ahmadi, the math behind wound care simply didn’t pencil out.
By some estimates, wound care costs upwards of $28 billion for the Medicare population, not including millions of younger, privately insured Americans.

Using predictive analytics and other technology, the startup acts as a care coordinator between health care providers, insurers, and patients.
