The best medical supplies and support to manage chronic conditions
About us
At Better Health, our mission is to digitize and modernize the antiquated medical supplies and devices industry. More than 60 million Americans use medical equipment and supplies in their homes on a regular basis. But getting access to these products can be incredibly challenging and costly. We aim to bring greater transparency and choice to our customers by offering an end-to-end care solution, bundling clinical consultation, member education, insurance management, and home delivery. As a licensed Medicare provider, we work with several Medicaid plans and have preferred and national partnerships with the nation’s leading payers. Founded by a team of healthcare, e-commerce, and software veterans and funded by world-class investors, we believe that you deserve Better.

“I would have paid all the money in the world to have someone to talk to.” Paula Kiss’ story is just one example of the peer-to-peer connection and support Better Health’s members find when they come to us to help manage their chronic condition. Our peer coaches know exactly what your chronically ill population is going through because they have walked in their shoes. The result? 86% of Better Health members who use our Peer Support program are able to avoid an unnecessary doctor or ER visit. #medicalsupplies #peersupport #chronicconditions

How can you improve health outcomes while reducing costs for your population? Better Health’s peer-to-peer connection is the answer for patients and payers alike. 86% of our members that used our Peer Support program were able to avoid an ER visit while managing their chronic condition, in a population that tends to utilize the ER 5X more than the average population, this avoidance leads to a reduction in unnecessary costs.

Our CEO Naama Stauber Breckler was off to the races this week with some of Better Health's best partners at the Kentucky Association of Health Plans's Women in Healthcare forum. Check out her key takeaways from the event on making the magic happen in Medicaid, how Better Health is improving outcomes for Kentuckians, and the forward-thinking friends she met along the way.
Kentucky Association of Health Plans did it again with an amazing Women in Healthcare forum and an afternoon at the races at Churchill Downs. My favorite part - getting to meet our partners in person...and also: •Watching Commissioner Lisa Lee take the stage with Paige Franklin (Aetna, a CVS Health Company), Krista Brinly Hensel (UHC), and Katherine North (Kentucky Association of Health Plans), and sharing their wisdom and passion for helping Medicaid beneficiaries: ✨ “Engagement is the basis for everything, when we’re able to engage with our members, that’s when we can change their lives, our team and partners are key in driving engagement” ✨ “You can’t be successful in Medicaid if you don’t have passion for it! The magic happens when you collaborate in the community together” ✨ “The desk is a dangerous place from which to see the world - talk to your members and providers!” •Talking to Talley Russell, Katie Cardarelli, and Sara Greenbaum about how we can continue innovating in healthcare, improve quality measures, and provide better services for Kentuckians and beyond. •Chatting with Krista Brinly Hensel from UHC, Paige Franklin, and Jennifer Ruehl Nachreiner from Aetna, Ryan R. Sadler, Esq., MBA, and Jennifer Robertson from Passport by Molina, our friends at Elevance Health, Wellcare Medicare and Humana at a fun afternoon at the races (thank you Tyler Glick for explaining how things work and recommending to bet on Sherbet Fountain 🐎) •A great dinner with Bent Christiansen and our friends at Passport by Molina, Dr. Thomas James, Dr. Jeb Teichman MD, and Taylor Garver (Louisville food scene is definitely worth checking out) Thank you Tom Stephens and Katherine North for a great event, see you next year!
