Medicine is a miracle.
Healthcare is a headache.

But your experience of it doesn't have to be.

We master the complexities of healthcare, so you can focus on the joy of patient care.

None of this will be easy. But we're here for the long run.

We’re dedicated to a future where the miracle of medicine is again filled with purpose and is a joy to deliver. A future where that miracle is made as simple, affordable, dependable, convenient and humane an experience as possible for those striving to stay well and for those living through suffering.

We’re physician-led and committed to understanding the problems involved in taking care of patients. We design new models of care and build the technology to make them happen.

Founder & CEO

Dr. Chaudhry is an internal medicine physician and medical technologist whose expertise spans healthcare payment, clinical service redesign, and the use of data analytics to improve clinical and financial performance in healthcare. Early on in his career, Dr. Chaudhry became interested in developing more scalable ways of delivering healthcare. His interest in health technologies in turn, grew out of that focus.

After completing his medical training in internal medicine, he completed the Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholars program at UCLA where he also earned his PhD focused on clinical informatics and health services research. He also worked at the UCLA Division of General Internal Medicine and the RAND Corporation as a research scientist where he studied the impact of health information technology on quality, efficiency, and costs of medical care. Dr. Chaudhry was selected as a member of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) and an author of the PCAST report on health information technology.
