So-called ‘personalized medicine’ is all the rage these days. Healthcare is being gradually affected by data-driven insights gleaned through what the healthcare sector calls ‘precision medicine’. The COVID-19 pandemic has added urgency to this sector. The 15-minute appointment that ends in prescription medicine is also being affected by the advance of remote telemedicine, and this whole arena is now being populated by startups.

Additional Info
Index Health is on a mission to get personalized medicine to 7B people.
Medicine today can be summarized as a 15min appointment that inevitably ends in prescription medication. It’s a reactive, symptom focused approach to health that hasn’t changed much since the 20th century.
Index Health is modernizing medicine by making treatment personalized, data-driven, and proactive to help prevent and treat disease in a much more effective way. We use advanced lab tests, highly trained medical staff, and data to personalize treatments. Personalized treatments include nutrition, lifestyle changes, and at times targeted supplements, and medication.
With our member base, we've proven to be more effective treatment than modern medicine, and also more cost effective for both them and their insurance.
We serve people who have chronic disease, mild issues, or are focused on prevention and optimization (biohacking).
