Better Health is creating a new kind of care platform, built on peer to peer connection. 

Our solution bundles peer coaching, education, and home delivery of medical supplies for people with chronic conditions.  We don’t just help our members discover and purchase the best medical supplies.

Improved mental health, reduced overutilization of care, and a 97% customer satisfaction rating.

This has allowed our member base to rapidly grow month to month with very low churn. We are backed by Caffeinated Capital, General Catalyst, Mastry, 8VC, Bill Ackman, as well as several prominent entrepreneurs and healthcare leaders.
