Alignment is practicing a bold new idea: it is possible to solve the complicated issues in health care while being financially responsible. We must care anywhere and do so by combining technology with better care—over the phone, online, in doctors’ offices and the senior’s home.

We’ve built our organization with two guiding principles. We hire industry experts who are recognized as the best in their field, and we hire only people who are passionate about member-centric care. Meet the people who lead by example.
