Local Connections for Health

Local Connections for Health (LCH), formerly known as Live Chair Health, has undergone a significant transformation to solidify its commitment to bridging the gap between healthcare and communities. LCH's rebranding signifies an expanded mission to seamlessly connect families to trusted local health and social care, while fostering stronger bonds between the healthcare industry and local communities. Research has underscored the effectiveness of family-focused engagement in preventive behaviors, proving it to be three times more impactful than individual-centered strategies. Given that about 34% of Americans reside in households with multiple health insurance coverages, LCH is dedicated to breaking down barriers and reducing confusion by offering family-oriented guidance toward local resources. Established in 2017 and headquartered in the United States, LCH has recently received non-equity assistance investment from UnitedHealthcare Accelerator in August 22, 2022. By offering a multi-channel, family-centric, and community-driven approach, LCH has positioned itself as an innovative player in the healthcare industry. The company aims to connect families to trusted local health and social care resources, enriching the health and well-being of members and consumers, thereby ensuring access to preventive and healthcare services offered by their trusted practitioners. This approach embodies the evolution of member engagement, emphasizing the dismantling of barriers to healthcare access while fostering community empowerment.
