An affordable top-up for complete coverage?
Meet the founders and get the facts!
Since its inception in October 2017, Nice Healthcare (one of Agility Innovation Partners’ key initiatives) has focused on making primary care affordable and accessible to people who historically have not had access to care, either for cost concerns, convenience, or other factors.
Drew Kallestad: Founder, Chief Strategy Officer
Drew founded AGILITY in 2018, armed with over three decades of executive experience in healthcare, ranging from employee benefit consulting & health risk management, to healthcare finance & employee engagement.
A truth seeker and business connector, Drew has successfully guided innovation launches in health data analytics, payment integrity, direct primary care, and improved health outcomes fields. Pre-Agility, Drew served as Executive VP at CoBiz Insurance. As the senior member of the division, he led the transformation of Employee Benefits team. The firm tripled in size during that time.
Today, Drew’s most invigorating “innovation workstation” isn’t behind a desk or a laptop, but up at his Colorado mountain getaway, skiing, hiking, snowshoeing and fly fishing.
Ken Sloan: Founder, Chief Growth Officer
Ken has successfully launched multiple innovations in health technology, insurance technology, and has experience leading teams that have played a key role in transforming healthcare and wellbeing in America.
He started this pursuit as an early adopter of consumer driven health plans/ consumerism in healthcare in the early 2000’s and moved into behavior change and driving innovation in health insurance for key stakeholder groups. Prior to co-founding AGILITY, Ken served as the Vice President of Growth and Distribution at Vitality Group, a leading global behavior change health tech company. Originally from the Chicago area, Ken and his family now live in Evergreen Colorado. He enjoys everything outdoors, spending time with kids, grandkids, and the family’s Black Labrador, Teddy.
