Plena Health on the record

What they shipped

  • From its YC profile: Plena is the AI operating system for specialty medical practices. We automate the administrative workflows that keep clinics running — referrals, fax intake, scheduling, procedure compliance, and collections — end to end, across all the systems a practice already uses. Unlike point solutions that cover a slice of the problem, Plena becomes the operating layer across the entire practice, connecting the systems, teams, and workflows that keep it running. (source)
  • Its own site describes it as: "Plena handles the complex workflows your staff shouldn" (source)

Who is behind it

  • Eyad Abdalla, Founder: Doctor's son, engineer by trade — Waterloo, then Datadog and Shopify. 3 years in specialty clinics convinced him they don't need more software. They need someone to do the work. Plena does it. (source)
  • Ahmed Al Mudarris, Founder/CTO: Co-founder & CTO of Plena. Started his career at a nuclear engineering startup, then built tier-zero infrastructure at AWS — the systems that can't go down. Doctor's son who took the MCAT before deciding to build for medicine, not practice it. Built Plena's platform end-to-end. (source)
