What does health equity mean to you?For Dr. Steve Neeleman, Founder of HealthEquity, it’s a way to bring healthcare to all those who need it, not just those who can afford it. Inspired by his own family’s health concerns and insurance quibbles, Steve created a company that bridges the gap left by insurance. While insurance can cover the bigger medical expenses, HealthEquity helps with the smaller issues that insurance doesn’t always cover. By helping people save for future health issues, HealthEquity helps people avoid tricky financial situations.
