GoHealth's mission is to improve access to healthcare in America.

36% employee growth in 12 months

Our take

GoHealth is one of the pioneering companies in health insurance tech, having been around since 2001. The company’s online portal allows users to compare quotes and secure insurance policies through its network of agents, or directly from the provider, and provides ongoing telecare for users.

As the years have gone on, GoHealth has continued adding to its stack by rolling out timely brands under its umbrella. These include GoMedicare which focuses on one-to-one consultations to help customers receive all benefits to which they’re entitled, as well as a platform called Encompass, a digital health solution rooted in value-based care.

The company has five million Americans enrolled to date and more than $1 billion in annual revenue. With telehealth providers here to stay, a strong focus on Medicare (which is set to have increased eligibility), stable partnerships with insurance providers, and a more stable stock market value, the company should continue to grow.
