About Osara Health:

Osara Health is an oncology support company founded in 2015 by cancer specialists to transform the experience of living with cancer.

We build support programs and technology designed to support and empower people impacted by cancer.

Our partnerships are with disability and life insurers, health plans, and employers to improve outcomes for people affected by cancer. We combine human coaching, digital tools, and clinical rigor to help members navigate symptoms, work planning, and caregiving, and to support insurers and employers with measurable results.

We believe strongly in the power that positive healthy behaviors can have on clinical outcomes, which is why we aspire to be the leaders in behavior change.
