Becker's Healthcare October 8, 2024
Zing Health is plotting an expansion in the Medicare Advantage market.
The Chicago-based insurer picked up a $140 million funding round in September. The company was born out of Health2047, the innovation lab at the American Medical Association, which backed the company in its latest funding round.
The insurer has 13,000 members, primarily in the Chicago market. Most of its members are in chronic special needs plans, which cater to the needs of those with diabetes, end-stage renal disease and other conditions.
Zing Health CEO Andrew Clifton sat down with Becker’s to explain the company’s growth outlook at the challenges and opportunities in the chronic special needs market.
