Nest Health
Nest Health is a New Orleans-based value-based care company that brings primary medical, behavioral, and social care directly into the homes of families on Medicaid. Founded in 2021 by Dr. Rebekah Gee and Rebecca Kavoussi, the company offers 24/7 in-home and virtual visits at no additional cost to eligible families, treating the whole household - children, parents, and postpartum mothers - under one roof. Its model has reduced emergency room use, doubled vaccination rates, and delivered a two-to-one return for payer partners across Louisiana and Arizona.
Rebekah Gee
Dr. Rebekah Gee is the founder and CEO of Nest Health, the first value-based primary, behavioral, and social care provider built for whole families on Medicaid, delivered through house calls and virtual visits from a base in New Orleans. An obstetrician-gynecologist and health-policy researcher, she ran the Louisiana Department of Health from 2016 to 2020, where she led Medicaid expansion and pioneered a subscription drug-payment model for hepatitis C. She was elected to the National Academy of Medicine in 2017 and now runs a startup that has raised a $22.5M Series A to scale care for the families the system tends to forget.
