In every country, healthcare systems can’t keep up anymore with the way we live. The system is jammed, and it is getting worse as we are living faster, longer and always expect delightful experiences. As a result, individuals, doctors, and hospitals all end-up being victims of the system.

Alan is your friend in health, your partner to better living. We unlock frictionless, fair & friendly healthcare for everyone. We use technology to offer our members the best prevention, access to information, and care while handling all the logistics and payment parts in a seamless way. We started building the best health insurance to help companies and individuals take care of themselves, their families, and their teams. We are bringing more and more services to be your friend in health.
