Exclusive Improving the Healthcare Financial Experience to Help Care Flow Zelis CEO Amanda Eisel shares her perspective on how the company is solving the problems of a fragmented health financial system to benefit all. By Stephanie Baum “When I turned 35, I started to experience symptoms of weight gain, loss of mental acuity and stamina, and a little bit of depression,” Alam said. “I kicked around the healthcare system for about a year, and no one could give me a really thorough answer. And then I met a group of hormone optimization regenerative physicians, and they told me that I was suffering from low testosterone. When I started to look at how large the problem was, it really took me back because there were hormonal imbalances not only in men, but also women.” Hone Health isn’t the only company focused on preventive health. Others include Malla and Parsley Health. When asked about the company’s goals ahead, Alam said it’s to scale the men’s and women’s businesses “dramatically.” Hone Health also hopes to conduct clinical trials on how well the business works. In addition, it aims to get to $100 million in recurring revenue in a “sustainable manner.” Picture: Feodora Chiosea, Getty Images
