Vynca
Vynca is a healthcare company focused on serious illness and end-of-life care.

Today it combines home-based and virtual palliative care, care navigation, and enhanced care management with technology, partnering with health plans and providers to keep seriously ill patients comfortable, out of the hospital, and cared for on their own terms.
