Mira, a digital health startup helping uninsured people access affordable healthcare, today announced the addition of three new industry advisors.

  • Phil Poley, former Managing Director at Accenture Health and former COO of Massachusetts Medicaid.
  • Elliott Poppel, former CEO of RobinHealth and current Product Management Lead at Facebook.

Mira has grown from being in less than 19 states this time last year to more than 35 states and is looking to provide their healthcare service nationwide. Each of these advisors will work closely with selected internal teams to help Mira accelerate market expansion, operational efficiency, and platform building.

“Building a multi-dimensional healthcare company requires a knowledge building capability that is beyond what most startups can handle internally. Meanwhile, getting the best of the best executives at such an early stage could be very challenging. By having Laurel, Phil, and Elliott joining our team, we really get the best of both worlds - having world-class business acumen at such a close proximity, and use that knowledge to experiment at a faster pace. It's a little bit like learning from the past and avoid unforeseen dead ends in the startup journey.” - Khang Vuong, Founder & CEO of Mira.
