What Amil Saúde S.A. does

Amil Saúde S.A. is a Brazilian health insurance operator that operates as part of UnitedHealth Group, one of the largest global healthcare companies. The entity was previously known as Medial Saúde before being rebranded under the unified Amil brand. The company offers a comprehensive portfolio of health and dental insurance products targeting individuals, families, micro-entrepreneurs (MEI), senior citizens, and corporate clients ranging from small/medium enterprises (PME) to large corporations. Its product suite includes individual/family plans, corporate plans, senior plans, adhesion/group plans, and dental coverage (including a pediatric Odonto Kids variant), with a value-priced sub-brand called Amil Fácil.

The underlying technology platform includes a mobile application (Aplicativo Amil Saúde) for beneficiary self-service, telemedicine and teleconsultation capabilities, and an online appointment scheduling system. A specialized post-sale service called PASDP supports HR and payroll professionals with administrative tasks including enrollments, cancellations, and contract monitoring. The credentialed provider network is extensive, particularly in São Paulo, encompassing 30+ renowned hospitals including Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein, Hospital Alemão Oswaldo Cruz, Hospital São Luiz, Hospital Santa Catarina, and others covering high-complexity procedures, adult and neonatal ICUs, and multiple specialties.

Revenue is generated through subscription-based monthly premiums with quote-based pricing not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market model is sales-led, operating through authorized brokers (corretores credenciados) — with Carmel Seguros as the primary authorized reseller — supplemented by direct channels including 0800 telephone lines, WhatsApp, email, and online quotation forms. The company is headquartered in São Paulo, Brazil, with operations concentrated in the São Paulo region.
