Our health system is broken, and it’s a huge problem. Costs are rising out of control while the patient experience gets worse. At Sana, we're passionate about fixing this problem by bringing accessible and affordable health plans to small and medium businesses.

This allows our customers to offer competitive benefits packages while paying an average of 20% less than traditional plans.
