As virtual healthcare moves into a more regulated, multi-specialty, and outcomes-focused era, MD Integrations (MDI) is positioning itself not just as a telehealth provider — but as the infrastructure behind modern digital care.
The company has raised $77 million in growth capital, led by Updata Partners and Denali Growth Partners. Simultaneously, MDI has appointed Ramin Zacharia as President and COO, in a move that signals operational readiness for broader scale, deeper integrations, and accelerated product innovation.
Founded in 2020 by Dr. Marc Serota, a quadruple board-certified physician, MDI has grown into a category-defining platform for telehealth enablement — powering millions of medical consults across all 50 U.S. states. Its model is clear: build a unified, physician-only network supported by end-to-end infrastructure, and make it available as a turnkey platform for digital health brands to plug into.
“After helping build technology and provider networks at eight telehealth companies, I saw the need for a single solution that connects brands and their customers with high-quality care delivered only by doctors,” said Serota, CEO and Founder. “With MDI, we’ve created a scalable, trusted platform that unites physicians, pharmacies, and diagnostics in one system.”
Infrastructure, Not Just Interface
Unlike consumer-facing telehealth brands, MDI operates as the clinical infrastructure that powers them. It enables healthcare startups and enterprise virtual care platforms to launch faster, expand seamlessly across state lines, and stay compliant — all without building or managing their own clinical workforce.
The platform is API-first, modular, and highly configurable. Brands can choose from a no-code interface or bring their own tech stack, integrating everything from pharmacy partners and diagnostics to fulfillment and EHR systems. But MDI’s sharpest differentiation is its insistence on a doctor-only clinical network — ensuring every patient interaction is handled by a board-certified MD or DO.
This is not just a quality promise; it’s a regulatory strategy. With tightening guardrails around virtual prescribing, diagnostics, and specialty care, MDI’s approach provides legal defensibility and clinical continuity in a field that has often prioritized speed over substance.
A Leadership Move Built for Scale
The appointment of Ramin Zacharia — an experienced operator with deep roots in healthcare growth-stage companies — reflects MDI’s focus on scaling efficiently and replicably. Zacharia’s mandate includes expanding the physician network, refining operational throughput, and strengthening partnerships across pharmacy, diagnostics, and fulfillment.
“This investment accelerates MDI’s trajectory as the leading telehealth infrastructure behind healthcare’s fastest-growing and best-known brands,” Zacharia said. “My focus is on scaling and replicating that model — with partner-centric innovation and physician-led care at the center.”
With investors like Updata and Denali Growth backing the vision, MDI will continue to expand into more specialties, deepen integrations with partners, and support an increasingly demanding telehealth market where speed, quality, and compliance must now coexist.
Editorial Perspective: Healthcare Infrastructure Is Having Its Moment
In a healthcare environment defined by platform fatigue, regulatory pressure, and consumer impatience, there’s a growing need for solutions that sit behind the scenes and make digital care work. MD Integrations appears to be one of the few platforms intentionally building for that layer — offering not just a clinical network, but a configurable, full-stack operating system for virtual care.
The company’s success will hinge on its ability to balance physician quality with network scale, and to maintain flexible technology while navigating a regulatory landscape that is shifting underfoot. But its model — infrastructure over interface, quality over shortcuts — aligns squarely with where the market is headed.
As more digital health companies look to expand into multi-specialty care, serve national populations, and meet increasingly complex compliance standards, MD Integrations could quietly become the engine under the hood of a new wave of healthcare brands.
