All of W14About CareMessage
CareMessage is a social enterprise and the largest patient engagement platform for low-income populations in the United States. We deliver personalized health education and care coordination through text messaging, reaching patients where they already are, in the language they speak, at the moments that matter most. Unlike technology built for large health systems and adapted down, CareMessage is designed from the ground up for organizations serving low-income, historically marginalized communities. Founded in 2012, CareMessage has now engaged more than 22 million people across 45 states, partnering with Federally Qualified Health Centers, Free and Charitable Clinics, and Tribal Health Organizations to produce measurable improvements in health equity, and we publish the evidence to prove it. As a nationally-recognized social enterprise we reinvest revenue into impact. We believe driving profit and purpose are not trade-offs, they are the same strategy. CareMessage has been recognized by TIME 100 Most Influential Company for Impact in Equality, Inc. Best in Business for Social Good, and recognized at the World Economic Forum for Social Entrepreneurship. Learn more about our work at: www.caremessage.org/impact
