Health IQ believes those living a healthy lifestyle are overpaying for their insurance. We are the only company that combines your current health, health literacy and active lifestyle to better predict your long-term health, getting you rates up to 41% lower.We're an innovative insurance startup using science and data to negotiate special rates on insurance for health conscious communities like runners, cyclists, vegans, yogis, weightlifters, etc. Our goal is to improve the health of the world by rewarding those living a healthy lifestyle with social and financial rewards. Health IQ's quiz was the first comprehensive measure of just how health literate a person is. To create it we hired 35 notable experts, including 3 faculty members from Harvard Medical School, the head orthopedic surgeon for the US Olympic team, prominent Yogis, published dietitians, and more. Together they wrote 30,000 questions. We calibrated these questions with a panel of 750,000 to find which health facts mattered the most. Today over 1M people have taken the Health IQ Quiz. Health IQ is licensed in all 50 states and we've secured more than $31B in life insurance coverage for cyclists, runners, weightlifters, high intensity interval training athletes, tennis players, swimmers, vegans, vegetarians, avid fitness enthusiasts, dedicated athletes, and those living a healthy lifestyle.Our diverse team has overcome their own personal health challenges with healthier habits, routine exercise, and better nutrition. We practice what we preach. If this mission and celebratory approach really resonates with you, apply to join our team!
