Force Therapeutics secured $1.7 million in a round that has started in September 2013, according to an SEC filing. The New York City-based company has raised $2.2 million to date.

Existing investors include former OpenTable CEO Thomas Layton; former CEO of Revolution Health and TicketMaster, John Pleasants; and FiveW Capital Managing Member Randall Winn.

Force Therapeutics offers a mobile and web-based program that can be prescribed to patients who are taking part in musculoskeletal injury rehabilitation.

“The home has become a focal point of value-based care delivery,” the company explains in a video. “Force is taking this vision and allowing providers to make the home a meaningful, valuable, and profitable component of their evolving care continuum.”

The company’s mobile app, called Force Patient, helps patients access home exercise videos, log their compliance, read educational materials, purchase gear, and receive messages from their care team. On the other hand, providers can use the system to view a patient’s compliance, activity levels and outcomes.
