Nomi Health, a direct healthcare company focused on providing real-time access to affordable care, announced a strategic investment from Inspirit Equity, a private equity firm founded by Charles Gores, son of Michigan native and Detroit Pistons owner Tom Gores.
This collaboration is set against the backdrop of rising employer-sponsored health plan costs in Michigan, which are projected to exceed $25,000 for family coverage—a 7% increase from the previous year. As a result, Michigan employers are seeking solutions to manage expenses while maintaining the quality of their benefits.
Employers continue to seek increased transparency, improved access, and measurable value from their healthcare spending. With support from Charles and the Gores Family, Nomi Health aims to expand its efforts across Michigan.
Nomi Health partners with self-funded employers, local providers, and public organizations to provide alternatives to traditional care pathways, aiming to reduce costs by bypassing intermediaries. The company’s platform incorporates real-time data, direct medical networks, and transparent payments to reduce waste, lower costs, offer $0 member payments, and expedite provider reimbursement.
This investment represents a milestone in Nomi Health’s goal to make healthcare costs more transparent and accessible, and it demonstrates a joint commitment to enhancing community health in Michigan, a state characterized by a competitive healthcare market.
KEY QUOTES:
“We’re proud to support Nomi Health in its mission to make care more accessible and affordable for working families. This investment is part of our broader commitment to building stronger, healthier communities.”
