About Us

Millions of patients with chronic conditions only see their doctor for a few minutes every year. At Assure Health, we know we can do better.

Our mission is to empower patients and providers with people-focused, technology-enabled chronic disease management. Assure Health closes the gaps between yearly doctor’s office visits by combining real, dedicated, and accessible care providers with easy-to-use technology. 

Our programs are evidence-based and deliver results: We keep patients healthy, provide the peace of mind that comes with regular clinician contact, prevent avoidable hospitalizations, and offer better care that reduces overall healthcare costs.

We’re not just a healthcare company. At Assure Health, we keep people healthy. Because we care.
