About Redesign
Redesign Health is a healthcare innovation platform. We bring together entrepreneurs, industry experts, and investors to launch companies that transform the healthcare system and empower people to live their healthiest lives. Our companies include Calibrate, Lively, Vault Health and Jasper. We’re capitalized with permanent capital from world-class institutional investors and entrepreneurs.
At Redesign Health, we’ve unlocked healthcare innovation at scale, and a key aspect of progress toward our mission of redesigning health for everyone is understanding the impact the companies we create have on the healthcare industry and the people who use it.
That means that as an organization we’re focused on specific areas of impact within healthcare. Those are: increasing access to care, increasing the quality of care provided, removing cost from the healthcare system and improving healthcare equity.
These four pillars shape everything we do, and every company idea that receives funding at Redesign Health must demonstrate that it has the potential to improve one or more of the above criteria without negatively impacting any of the others.
“Cypress” was created to improve access to quality and comprehensive allergy care, as over 100 million children and adults in the US have allergies with fewer than 5,000 allergists nationwide. We are developing a new allergy care model that enables patients to be diagnosed, managed and treated by their trusted primary care providers - while increasing the revenue to the provider practice. We believe this commitment to delivering local and timely access to allergy care is critical to improving the quality of life for millions of allergy patients.
About the job
Allergy prevalence has grown significantly over the past few decades, resulting in primary care providers managing a larger population of allergy patients - without the resources and specialist training to do so.
Cypress partners with pediatricians and primary care providers to empower allergy care services, diagnostics, and immunotherapy within the convenience of their offices - improving key access gaps for millions of patients with environmental allergies, food allergies and asthma. Cypress acts as a virtual extension of the practice with a team of clinical providers, including Board certified allergists and registered dieticians.
Cypress will equip practices with the operational expertise, training, technology, and clinical services to enable allergy diagnosis and treatment. This will allow our partner providers to efficiently and profitably achieve superior clinical outcomes while reducing their back-office challenges, ultimately empowering quality care and sustained clinic growth.
As the CEO and Founder of Cypress, you will launch and grow the business with the mission of enabling primary care providers to provide timely diagnostics and treatments while thriving in today’s demanding practice environment.
