Spectrum Health Ventures in Grand Rapids today announced it has invested in a Series B funding round for Vynca, a California-based advance care planning solution. The round secured $10.3 million.
Other investors included First Trust Capital Partners and OCA Ventures. Vynca provides an end-to-end solution supporting health care organizations so they can implement and scale advance care planning, so patients’ end-of-life care preferences are honored.

The funding will help fuel the company’s expansion into new geographies and drive new product development.
