About Xealth:

"Xealth will dramatically improve the connection between patients and clinicians."

- Rod Hochman, MD, President & CEO, Providence St. Joseph Hospital

Xealth enables healthcare teams to order digital content, services, and OTC items as easily as they do medications. Patients can then access these digital health prescriptions from the provider's portal, so that they can actively manage their health - improving both client care, and the doctor-client relationship.

Xealth spun out of Providence St. Joseph's Digital Integration Group in 2016. Based in Seattle, the company was founded by the team of serial entrepreneurs behind Swype, an innovative keyboard that reach over 1 billion users, and Boost Mobile, now a Sprint service generating over $5 billion in revenue.
