About the Company

At Vanna Health, we believe that a sense of belonging and engagement in the community is the foundation for improving overall health and wellbeing for individuals with serious mental illness. We help people living with serious mental illness thrive by strengthening the community ecosystem around them. Through innovative payment models and technology, Vanna Health promotes collaboration across existing behavioral health and primary care providers, hospitals, payers, clubhouses and other community based organizations. Additionally, Vanna Health can deploy our own top quality providers and case managers, as needed, in areas where there may be a shortage of resources.

Vanna Health was founded in 2021 by a team of mission-driven entrepreneurs, working in close partnership with payers, providers, and community based organizations to promote collaboration and improve outcomes while driving down costs. We are committed to the goal of supporting all individuals with culturally competent care regardless of their race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, or gender identity. With modern technology, extensive development opportunities, diverse careers paths, and a culture that values diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, we are redefining what it means to work in community health.
