MediShout Secures $9 Million Series A to Digitize Hospital Operations and Expand Globally

Healthtech startup MediShout has secured $9 million in a Series A funding round led by Heal Capital. The financing will support the company’s expansion into the US and mainland Europe and fuel further development of its digital infrastructure platform that connects hospitals, medical suppliers, and facilities teams.

Founded in 2013 by former NHS clinicians Dr. Ash Kalraiya (CEO) and Dr. Ali Bahsoun (CPO), MediShout has built a dual-sided platform that replaces fragmented hospital–supplier communications—such as phone calls, emails, or disconnected systems—with a centralized interface to report equipment faults, coordinate spare-parts logistics, manage maintenance, and oversee purchase orders. The system integrates with existing hospital IT solutions used in clinical engineering and sterile services, enabling staff to track issue resolutions and logistics updates in real time.

The funding round was oversubscribed and included participation from existing investors such as Nickleby Capital and Meridian Health Ventures. With this investment, MediShout’s total capital raised to date exceeds $14 million. According to PitchBook data, total funding for MediShout currently stands around $16.2 million.

MediShout reports meaningful early results in the UK. In hospital deployments, the company claims to have reduced surgery cancellations by up to 44 percent and achieved time savings of up to 4.5 hours per reported faulty device through automated escalation and tracking. On the supplier side, using organizations have seen 50 percent faster loan-kit returns and improved visibility across their logistics operations.

With its new capital, MediShout plans to scale its commercial and software teams, deepen partnerships with hospitals and suppliers, and accelerate its product roadmap. The company is targeting expansion into new European markets as well as entry into the US healthcare system, with the aim of growing its network effects by bringing more institutions and service providers into the ecosystem.

Dr. Ash Kalraiya said the funding will enable MediShout to “grow the network faster and deliver more value where it matters—at the point of care.” He noted that each additional hospital or supplier joining the ecosystem strengthens the platform’s ability to streamline communication, reduce inefficiencies, and ultimately improve patient safety.

Christian Lautner, Founding Managing Partner at Heal Capital, commented that MediShout is redefining operational excellence in healthcare by creating a platform that “improves service levels, reduces costs and ultimately makes patient care safer.”

Meridian Health Ventures, a London-based venture fund focused on early-stage digital health and medical technologies, is one of the repeat backers of MediShout and supports its growth strategy.

As healthcare systems globally face growing pressure to deliver more with fewer resources, MediShout’s approach—digitizing the often-invisible but critical workflows behind device maintenance, procurement, and service coordination—offers a promising tool to enhance operational resilience. By serving as a unified infrastructure layer between hospitals and suppliers, the company aims to reduce friction, prevent avoidable delays, and free clinicians to concentrate on patient care rather than back-end coordination.

With solid backing from healthtech investors and demonstrated traction in NHS hospitals, MediShout is positioning itself as a rising leader in operational technology for healthcare. The new funding marks an important milestone in its mission to modernize the infrastructure that keeps hospitals running and strengthen health systems worldwide.
