We’re on a mission

At Nonstop, we believe healthcare is more than a transaction that happens during illness or injury. It’s vital to the success of organizations and in building a thriving community.

We are all about community

In 2012, Nonstop Health was founded on a radical belief: communities are strongest when high-quality healthcare is accessible, before and whenever help is needed. Nonstop set out to help nonprofits navigate a broken system, a mission that has since expanded to serve organizations and individuals across the country.

I joined Nonstop Health because the status quo in healthcare is failing Americans. Our system is riddled with inefficiencies and cost-shifting tactics that force employers into impossible choices: cut benefits or raise premiums. When costs are passed to employees, wages shrink and access to care disappears.

 

We are here to change that by removing financial barriers, simplifying access, and putting people first at every step of care.

Every day, we see firsthand the extraordinary difference our first-dollar benefits platform makes in people’s lives: employees walking into a doctor’s office without fear of a surprise bill, HR teams finally equipped with benefits that actually work, and brokers who can trust us to deliver on the promises they make to clients.

Together, we’re redefining what healthcare should be: simple, accessible, and affordable for everyone.

Thank you for your partnership, your trust, and for joining us on this mission.

Onward,

Paymon Farazi
CEO, Nonstop Health
