Alongside Health

What Alongside Health does

Alongside Health is a direct primary care (DPC) practice incorporated in 2023 as a Pennsylvania LLC and headquartered in Philadelphia. The company delivers primary healthcare through a flat monthly membership that bypasses traditional insurance billing, providing members with unlimited in-office visits, annual physicals, preventive care, chronic disease management, basic laboratory tests, telehealth consultations, and 24/7 access to their physician via phone, text, and email. The technology stack is a website-based platform with secure messaging and telehealth capabilities; no mobile app is offered. The company is self-attested HIPAA compliant with encryption of PHI in transit and at rest, access controls, and periodic security audits.

The practice operates on a panel size of 600-700 patients per physician (versus 3,000-4,000 in traditional primary care) and schedules 30-60+ minute appointments, with care coordination and referrals for specialists, hospital care, and procedures outside the membership scope. Monthly membership fees range from $200-$400 for adults with family discounts available, and corporate pricing is offered on a volume-discounted basis. Alongside Health pursues four distinct customer segments: individual members (direct-to-consumer), physicians seeking to practice the DPC model, employers offering DPC as an employee benefit, and benefit brokers who resell the DPC solution to employer clients.

The company employs a dual go-to-market combining D2C self-enrollment via the website with sales-led B2B engagement for employers and broker channels. Alongside Health is privately held with 9 employees, no disclosed funding rounds, no institutional investors, no parent company, and no disclosed management team. Its operations are confined to the Philadelphia metropolitan area, and customer logos, revenue figures, and ownership details are not publicly disclosed.

Broad incumbents

• One Medical (Amazon One Medical): Membership-based primary care provider with national footprint, now owned by Amazon. Comparable because it offers the same subscription-concierge primary care model alongside Alongside Health, but with vastly greater scale, capital, and technology infrastructure.
• Oak Street Health (CVS Health): Senior-focused value-based primary care provider now owned by CVS Health. Comparable as a subscription/relationship-based primary care operator using extended appointments and panel-based care, but serving a different (Medicare-eligible) patient segment.
• ChenMed: Family-owned primary care provider focused on senior Medicare Advantage patients with small panels and high-touch care. Comparable model mechanics - small panels, extended visits, relationship-based care - though operating at much larger scale and different payer mix.

Direct peers

• Parsley Health: Membership-based primary care focused on whole-person and chronic condition care. Comparable as a subscription concierge primary care brand competing for the same consumer and employer benefits buyer.
• SteadyMD: Telehealth-first DPC and concierge primary care platform serving consumers and employer clients. Comparable as a subscription primary care brand using virtual delivery to scale membership across geographies.
• Hint Health: DPC platform and network operator enabling independent DPC practices. Comparable because it powers DPC memberships with employer and broker billing infrastructure - directly addressing the same market Alongside Health serves.
• Everside Health (now apree health): Large DPC and on-site/near-site employer primary care operator. Directly comparable as a DPC provider targeting employer benefits and broker channels with volume-based contracts.
• Forward: Subscription-based primary care with tech-forward in-person and app-based experience. Directly comparable as a DPC/concierge primary care competitor targeting the same consumer and employer segments with a similar flat-fee membership model.

Emerging players

• Vitable Health: DPC and primary care operator focused on employer-sponsored benefits, including hourly and frontline workforces. Comparable because it sells through brokers and employers with fixed per-employee pricing similar to Alongside Health's employer model.
• Sesame: Direct-pay healthcare marketplace connecting consumers with primary care and specialty providers at transparent prices. Comparable as a cash-pay, insurance-bypass alternative to traditional primary care with overlap on telehealth-enabled consumer offerings.
