About Us

Redefining healthcare with purpose.

Premise Health is the world’s leading direct healthcare provider. Our transformative approach focuses on clinical expertise, easy access to care, and a seamless and simple member experience.

From opening our first onsite facility at Random House in 1964 (a partnership that’s still going strong), to offering onsite, nearsite, 24/7 virtual, mobile, and event care for top organizations across the globe, we’re creating healthcare the world needs now. By continually simplifying complexity and breaking down barriers to care, we’re fulfilling our promise of helping people get, stay, and be well.

We’re Honored to Serve Alongside You

At Premise Health, we’re on a mission to help people. We are proud to be in the top three of only 31 healthcare organizations that make the Military Friendly list for our programs supporting veterans, the guard, reserves and active military spouses. With a dedicated military outreach program, we are committed to hiring veterans and active military spouses and supporting them in roles and careers at Premise.  It’s at the center of everything we do and what unites us as a team. No one understands that more than the brave men and women who serve our country. We are honored to serve alongside our veterans who continue to make an impact as we redefine healthcare together for our members.
