We Are Amend health
Integrating health tech in rural and under-served communities.
We collaborate to better serve these communities through the hurdles of lack of internet connectivity, socioeconomic factors, technology limitations, and reimbursements primarily through Medicare and Medicaid.
We work with our affiliate network to identify challenges in each community and source existing start-up companies to collaboratively solve these hurdles by creating personalized tailored products and solutions.
We engage with various funding sources for each project ranging from the traditionally local sources within the community we are working within, to national endowments and venture capitalist firms, to invest in existing and/or newly formed startups.
Our Vision
- We bring together healthcare leaders, technology innovators and entrepreneurs passionate about solving problems in rural and under-served healthcare.
- We believe solving the issues in one community has immediate positive impact in surrounding regions with similar issues.
- Understanding patient access and financial viability concerns of rural health care delivery groups will allow us to bring solutions through our partner network, or build and deploy customized solutions that address these issues.
FOR
HOSPITALS
While major health systems have dedicated teams to addressing their innovation and technology needs, many small to midsize hospitals do not. We fill that gap and provide expertise and shared knowledge from a variety of geographies. We empower our affiliates to rapidly identify and deploy solutions to problems that would otherwise go unaddressed.
The solutions we provide are cognizant of the realities of their communities: connectivity, reimbursement, socioeconomic, etc.
FOR
INNOVATORS
Access to paid pilots and projects in the health technology sector is incredibly difficult. We provide access to well defined challenges, funding, and rapid deployment pathways for their solutions. Additionally, we create opportunities for innovators to join together and create new entities based on customer demand.
In addition to rapid access to a defined customer channel, we provide access to like minded investor networks that understand the realities of our affiliates and innovators.
FOR
INVESTORS
We provide access to innovative startups that have an established, paid customer pipeline. They also have been vetted by us for their business and technology viability.
Additionally they are established entities, not new ideas that have yet to be formed. We only engage with existing companies that have a product ready to go.
