Expedient Healthcare Marketing Pvt. Ltd, which runs online diagnostics and wellness startup Healthians.com, has raised an undisclosed amount in bridge funding from Japan’s Asuka Holdings and other existing investors.

Healthians, which is backed by cricketer Yuvraj Singh’s early-stage fund YouWeCan Ventures, is now in advanced talks to raise a Series B round.

Prior to this round, Healthians had raised $3.16 million from venture capital fund Beenext, Japanese e-commerce and investment firm Beenos, M&S Partners and YouWeCan Ventures, among others.

It had raised seed funding from healthcare-focused startup accelerator Healthstart Pte. Ltd and its founding partner Suhail Chander in 2014.

The company aims to add over 200 labs and more than 3,000 phlebotomists to its existing network over the next 12-18 months
