Read previewHealthtech startup Fabric launched out of stealth in March 2023 to help patients get care faster and automate administrative work for providers. In June, Fabric bought Walmart's virtual care business, MeMD, after the retailer announced it would shutter its 51 health clinics. MeMD was Fabric's third acquisition — the startup previously bought asynchronous virtual care platform Zipnosis from Bright Health, as well as generative AI startup Gyant.
