Andy Lozier, Founder
Most of managing health happens outside of a doctor’s office.
People make decisions every day about medications, symptoms, appointments, routines, food, exercise, insurance, transportation and countless other parts of their health and daily lives. Yet the guidance and support available to help with those decisions is often fragmented, difficult to navigate or simply not available when it is needed.
Families and caregivers do everything they can to help, and clinicians provide critical guidance during the time they have with patients. But they cannot be present for all of the questions, decisions and difficult moments.
Clarence Health was created to help fill that gap.
Clarence Health takes its name from the guardian angel in the film It’s a Wonderful Life. Like the character, our services guide people through important moments, help them understand what to do next and empower them to achieve better outcomes.
Clarence Health was created by Andy Lozier after he experienced firsthand the challenges of managing his father's chronic conditions, as well as his own, within the fragmented U.S. health system.
Prior to founding Clarence, Andy created and led the New Ventures & Business Incubation function at OhioHealth, a $7 billion health system. In that role, his team evaluated disruptive technologies, managed the system's venture partnerships and investments, and helped build innovation capabilities across the organization.
Jim practiced medicine as an intensivist and pulmonologist prior to becoming a physician leader & administrator.
He is currently Chief Medical Officer at AndHealth, a specialty care provider. Previously, Jim led population health operations and served as head of quality for a sixteen-hospital regional health system in the Midwest.
Clarence was built and is advised by a highly talented group of experts whose experience spans decades in healthcare, product development, and advanced software engineering.
