OVERVIEW

Haven is an independent organization founded by Amazon, Berkshire Hathaway and JPMorgan Chase to create better health outcomes, greater patient satisfaction and lower costs for its U.S.-based employees and families. Haven CEO Atul Gawande, MD, MPH, said in a March 2019 announcement, “We want to change the way people experience health care so that it is simpler, better and lower cost. We’ll start small, learn from the experience of patients, and continue to expand to meet their needs.”
