Our Mission

We deliver compassion, information, and peace of mind to your members and patients.

At Porter, we understand how confusing the healthcare system can be and how that negatively impacts the quality of care for members and patients of payers and providers. We are here to make healthcare simpler and easier for everyone. As we navigate individuals through the healthcare maze and create connectivity between the silos of care, we remove this confusion and eliminate unnecessary and wasteful healthcare spending.

Our Approach

Driven by robust AI analytics, Porter’s Care Guide team helps the member navigate the healthcare delivery system, secures the right support for each member’s specific needs, and directs Porter’s team of expert clinicians to perform comprehensive in-home assessments, complete with lab and diagnostic testing. By coordinating the complexities of each unique care journey, Porter helps close the gaps with the largest impact on quality measures, total cost of care, risk adjustment, and member experience.
