Sana’s vision is to make healthcare easy.
All of us can agree healthcare is simply too hard in the US. And our members feel that pain day in and day out. We aim to create an experience that simply feels easy when you need to access our healthcare system. If you need something, you know where to go to get it with care that is a click (or as few clicks as possible!) away.
What’s beautiful about a vision oriented toward “easy” is how it imparts a singular feeling. We instinctively know as humans when something is easy versus hard, even if we can’t explain why. We fight as a company to make an easy pathway available to all our members at every stage of their healthcare journey. If you feel passionate about delivering better healthcare to small businesses through a seamless care experience and affordable benefits, join us!
We've compiled an innovative team with top talent from across the healthcare and technology industries to deliver engaging, modern, concierge-style healthcare for our members. This includes assisting with navigating the healthcare system, coordinating care, and providing education and support. The Care Navigator will work closely with patients, providers, and other members of the healthcare team to ensure that patients receive the highest quality of care.
