GoHealth

GoHealth is a Chicago, Illinois-based digital health insurance marketplace that utilizes proprietary technology to connect individual consumers with insurance carriers and agents. The publicly traded company primarily focuses on facilitating consumer enrollment in Medicare and Affordable Care Act (ACA) subsidized health plans. Operating under the NASDAQ ticker symbol GOCO, the platform generates its revenue through commissions earned directly from insurance carriers for successful policy placements. The enterprise secured a $50 million growth investment from Norwest Equity Partners in 2012 before Centerbridge Partners acquired a majority stake at an approximate $1.5 billion valuation in 2019. Following a corporate leadership transition in June 2022, Vijay Kotte assumed the role of Chief Executive Officer while the original creators transitioned to executive board positions. The organization was originally founded as Norvax in 2001 by Clint Jones and Brandon Cruz.
