Our take
Millions of Americans make use of Medicare Advantage plans but with an ageing population, the amount of federal spending on these plans is ever-increasing. Devoted Health is seeking to tackle this problem by offering personalised care and proactive health intervention for people on these plans. By diagnosing conditions early, encouraging healthy behaviours, and supporting recovery from treatment, it hopes to drive down the overall cost of providing healthcare to seniors.
Devoted Health’s platform connects patients over 65 with doctors, hospitals and pharmacies that prioritize patient-oriented treatment. The company offers in-house insurance plans, full service guides to navigate the healthcare system, and "Devoted Medical" - a team of doctors and nurse practitioners who provide ongoing care for chronic conditions, support after hospital stays and other medical services.
As the popularity of personalised healthcare rises, Devoted Health looks set to capitalise on its ongoing effort to bring more quality to the sector. The company is making waves too, having recently been recognised as the Best Insurance Companies for Medicare Advantage in 2025 by the U.S. News & World Report's. With this sort of success, its sure to continue to see more growth for years to come.
