About Pair Team

Pair Team is building a new kind of healthcare system across Medicaid, Medicare, and public assistance programs: one that recognizes that access to housing, nutritious food, and reliable transportation are just as critical to health as having the right medications or seeing a doctor.

As a public benefit corporation and AI-enabled medical group, we partner with shelters, food pantries, and community organizations to deliver “whole-person” care to the 115 million Americans who rely on the safety net. We are currently the largest complex care provider in California with over 500 employees and are expanding nationally. Our model replaces fragmented healthcare and social services systems with one trusted relationship for all medical, behavioral, and social needs.  We improve access, build trust, and dramatically lower costs (52% fewer ER visits, 26% fewer hospitalizations). Our model is a rare combination of saving tax payer dollars ($150B annually at scale) while putting people on an upward life trajectory. At national scale, this approach would save taxpayers.

These outcomes are driven by the AI-first, whole-person infrastructure we are building — a platform that connects healthcare and social-service organizations into a unified network. Leveraging our vast data and years of operational experience, we are building the agentic infrastructure for the safety net to coordinate care, automate operations, and learn from every patient interaction to continuously improve outcomes.
