In 2015, Remodel Health was founded by Scott Lingle and Justin Clements, two health insurance industry experts from Indianapolis. In the wake of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), Lingle and Clements developed top-of-the-line technology, including a quoting system. They launched a company focused on helping brokers help employers switch from expensive, traditional group health insurance to affordable, individual health insurance plans. One of Remodel Health’s first broker partners was GuideCare—started by Austin Lehman—with a calling to serve churches and ministries.
In 2016, Remodel Health, in partnership with GuideCare and another broker, obtained its first paying customers, Crossroads Church of Avon and Eckhart & Company, a printing company. Both organizations had significant and unsustainable health insurance costs. Our expert team was able to help them move to a much more sustainable model that enabled their organizations to flourish. Crossroads Church of Avon and Eckhart & Company are both still loyal customers to this day.
In 2017, Remodel Health and GuideCare hosted a huge party with dozens of churches and pastors to celebrate Indiana churches saving $1 million annually. As a result, $1 million was funneled back into local Christian churches and ministries. Soon after, Remodel Health acquired GuideCare, its top performing broker, and brought on Austin Lehman to lead the company.
In 2019, Remodel Health launched its Shopping & Enrollment platform, giving its customers more visibility into their health insurance plans, as well as more opportunities to optimize them. This was the first year that customers could self-service their health benefits online.
In 2020, despite it being a rough retention and growth year due to the pandemic, Remodel Health obtained its largest customer to date. Our state-of-the-art solutions put this organization on a sustainable financial path. We also adjusted pricing across various tiers of employers to reflect our value propositions, setting the stage for improved customer retention for years to come.
In 2021, Remodel Health made the Inc. 5000 list for the second time, and this time at No. 758. Remodel Health experienced explosive growth this year as well, adding over 2,500 new customers. During this time, significant enhancements were made to streamline its process of onboarding customers more smoothly. We also tightened our process, refined and streamlined our solutions, and invested more in our technology and people.
In 2023, Remodel Health surpassed $100 million in savings for its valued customers. Top-of-the-line technology solutions, along with a passionate team of professionals dedicated to helping businesses, allowed us to achieve this milestone. Organizations and businesses trusted us to help them, and we happily delivered. Our next goal is to surpass $1 billion in customer savings. We know there are more people to help and more companies to serve.
