Our mission is focused on the patient journey.
Diverse experience. A shared passion.
At Annexus Health, we are a team of dedicated professionals with backgrounds in life sciences, healthcare software technology development, and the provider setting. While we approach our work from different angles, we are united by our commitment to reducing the administrative and logistical burdens across the patient journey in order to combat financial toxicity at both the patient level and the provider level. With this common goal in focus, our unparalleled relationships within the US healthcare market, and a development philosophy that emphasizes cycle-managing a problem rather than taking a task-based approach, we are able to rapidly develop and deploy solutions that have an immediate impact on the financial assistance cycle management process-and on the lives of patients.
Our Core Values
Diversity
Our collective differences allow us as an organization to think, plan, and execute beyond our own individual backgrounds, experiences, and preconceptions. At Annexus Health, we cherish our diversity and actively work to create an environment in which everyone feels safe, respected, and free to be their authentic selves.
What it means to be a part of the Annexus Health team
"I joined Annexus Health because the passion this team has for reducing the burden for patients is magnetic. I, like many, have been touched by cancer. I have seen the toll it can take not only on the patient, but also on their family. Our team really goes above and beyond in finding and providing solutions for providers, foundations, and life science partners to improve the patient journey from start to finish. This is more than just a job to me: It's my chance to be a part of the disruption of our currently flawed systems in order to improve outcomes for patients, so they can spend more time with their loved ones."
Bridget Daugherty
Manager of Corporate Initiatives
"I am personally connected with our mission at Annexus, as both my husband and father have experienced their own battles with cancer. Having been on the provider side prior to joining Annexus, I have also seen firsthand the need for solutions to ease the burden across the patient journey so patients can focus on kicking cancer in the rear and get back to living their lives."
Tara Megee
Director of Provider Solutions
"Having battled cancer and having served as a cancer caregiver to my father and grandmother, the work I do at Annexus is very personal. I love how our solutions enable providers to help reduce the financial burden for patients so they can focus on beating cancer with less anxiety about the financial implications down the road."
Amanda Deason
Content Specialist
"The ability to help others is what I love most about working at Annexus Health. Our company is made up of a talented group of individuals who all share the same passion to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others. Each individual is constantly looking for new ways in which to help their teammates internally or for new ways in which they can better serve our customers so that our customers can in turn help patients obtain financial assistance in order to fight their cancer."
Dominick Baffone
Account Specialist, Provider Solutions
"A close friend of mine-a climber who lived a very healthy lifestyle-woke up one day with a piercing headache. Over the next few months, our conversations turned from our next big adventure to his next treatment, and how he and his family were struggling to deal with the financial side of things. I felt pretty helpless watching his reality unfold. Fast-forward to when I first learned about Annexus Health and how they strive to help patients navigate the financial maze. How could I not want to be a part of that? Now, not only do I feel like I am positively impacting patients along their journey, but I am proud to tell my family about my work each day."
John Hazeltine
Senior Software Engineer
"Working directly with patients in an oncology practice, I saw the unfortunate impact cancer can have not only on a patient's mind and body, but on their financial situation. It was an honor to support my patients as a financial counselor, so when the opportunity arose to work with Annexus and be able to support patients across the country, I knew it was exactly where I needed to be."
