About Amaze
Amaze Health works with employers to empower their employees (and employees’ families) with the knowledge, information, self-confidence and support to manage their own healthcare. Amaze is built on a foundation of research that clearly says people with greater knowledge, skill a and confidence about medical care get better care and spend less money on it.
Amaze’s mobile technology platform provides people with access to telemedicine, educational resources, medical research resources, and the tools to find, access and organize all things related to their medical care.
Amaze was founded by a team of medical and public policy experts who are deep vested in their mission to change the American healthcare system to one that truly puts patients first.
