Description

NourishedRx is building an innovative end-to-end digital health platform to improve the lives of those suffering from chronic disease, food insecurity, and social isolation and leveraging the power of food and behavioral economics in the $30 billion “food as medicine” market. NourishedRx partners with health plans and employers to deliver personalized food plans and home delivery of a wide assortment of healthful nutritious meals to their most vulnerable members – those facing nutritionally sensitive chronic health conditions and who are often at risk of food insecurity. 

Macro tailwinds, including social, regulatory, legislative, economic, and demographic, have caused the incidence and prevalence of chronic disease to accelerate. Now, more than ever, providing nutrition benefits is a key way for payers to reduce the total healthcare costs while keeping patients healthier. With modern technology at its core, NourishedRx is uniquely positioned to revolutionize the way nutrition benefits are delivered and reframe the cultural mindset that healthy food is more than a perk but a necessity which should be accessible to everyone, regardless of income. Even more compelling is the ability to build trust with our members to gain actionable insights around medication adherence, housing instability, and more….becoming an engagement tool for a holistic health solution. 

Founded in 2019, NourishedRx is backed by Primetime Partners and S2G Ventures. They are a passionate team of healthcare professionals, food entrepreneurs, business executives and experienced product management united by their belief that nutritious food and social interaction are strong determinants of good health and a life well-lived. They have launched several pilot programs with a number of marquee partners including Humana, a mid-western Blue Cross Blue Shield plan and New York Presbyterian health system.
