We’re reimagining preventative care
Savo uses technology and design principles to unstick the barriers standing between people and better health, before those barriers become chronic conditions.
Who We Are
Mission-driven enterprise in service of preventative health
Savo Health Inc. identifies where preventative health programs and initatives are failing to reach the people in search of support and builds the infrastructure to close that gap. We partner with the organizations best positioned to make lasting change: health plans, nonprofits, community care hubs, and the philanthropies that fund them.
We build infrastructure to act on existing evidence
Decades of research have produced proven frameworks for preventing chronic disease but implementing them in communities is a separate endeavor. We work in the space between identified proven solutions and realized outcomes by exploring purpose-built technology, community-centered design, and partnerships that move at the speed of need.
Identify the barrier
Unlock it
Scale what works
We work by deeply understanding where the system is failing (i.e., why proven programs go unused, referrals stall, and successfull programs struggle to scale). Then we build targeted solutions aimed at mitigating those challenges.
Our inaugural solution is Mile 22, built to close the access and delivery gap in diabetes prevention. It is the first of many.
Inaugural solution:
Mile 22
Fewer than 1% of eligible Americans enrolls in a CDC-recognized diabetes prevention program (DPP). Mile 22 addresses both sides of that failure by building the supply of delivery partners and the awareness-to-enrollment pathway that gets people in search of support through the door.
