About 9am.health
Today’s healthcare fails a lot of us living with chronic conditions. It is unnecessarily hard to get access to medical advice, prescriptions and medications. More and more costs are put on the consumer as healthcare systems struggle to carry the burden.
Our Client, 9am.health, is building an international company to redesign healthcare for consumers making it easy, affordable and kind. They start by focusing on chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension and hyperlipidemia for customers in the United States. They will redesign all care elements into one digital service individualized around today’s reality of people’s life - always available and incredibly convenient and kind, at prices anyone can afford even without insurance.
The founding team behind 9am.health has been working together for many years and includes former founders and CEOs of mySugr, a digital service used by over 3m people with diabetes worldwide. Today the team has 200 employees and is part of the world’s largest biotech company Roche.
