Chicago, Illinois, United States Vivante Health Full time

About Vivante

Vivante Health is an innovative startup, backed by leading digital health investors, reinventing the way chronic conditions are managed. We're filling the unmet needs of people with chronic conditions that are invisible, neglected or stigmatized, starting with digestive disease.

Why digestive? Because an astonishing 70 million people in the US are affected—that's twice the number with diabetes and more than many other chronic conditions combined. Unlike other chronic conditions, though, digestive diseases often go untreated or misdiagnosed...because of stigma.

At Vivante, we think it's time to bring digestive health to the forefront while providing REAL solutions to the millions who are struggling and don't know where to turn. Our health management ecosystem, GIThrive, empowers people—through brilliant technology and advanced science—to spend less time worrying about their digestive symptoms and more time living life. GIThrive is the first employer-sponsored program for digestive health.

With a remote-first workforce, we're changing the way healthcare is delivered.
