Essen-based Opta Data founds start-up from

Thevea is the name of the newly founded start-up that wants to help both speech therapists and physiotherapists with the digitalisation of practices and therapies. It is a spin-off.

By 2025, the professional group of healthcare providers must also be digitized and connected to telemedicine. This is what the current draft law of the Federal Ministry of Health from the beginning of the year says. This is where the newly founded start-up Thevea senses its opportunity and offers a practice management software. The solution can be used by healthcare providers, such as speech therapists and physiotherapists, rehabilitation sport providers and health centres, to digitise their therapies, training sessions and the management of their practices. Thevea is a spin-off of the Opta Data group of companies.

An initial offering has been available since December 2020 and, under the name evo-Check, provides support in checking the correct design of the remedy prescription in order to prevent reductions or difficulties in billing. "After we have provided our customers and interested parties with a tool for checking prescriptions free of charge with eVO-Check, the next fee-based tariff will enable digital billing," announces founder Lauritz Angerstein, who serves as managing director together with Julian Adams.
