Our Story

We are a healthcare technology company started by pharmacists and software engineers. With our Troy.AI technology, we provide  chronic disease management solutions that drive meaningful behavioral changes.

Big health insurance companies have become more expensive and less transparent in their pricing and benefits. Seeing this confusion in our own communities, Troy's founders set out to build a health plan option that is obvious, comprehensive and easy to understand for every single member.

Troy Medicare now serves thousands of Medicare-eligible low-income beneficiaries in the most underserved communities in the United States.


Our Principles

1. Member Obsession: put members first, earning their trust in the process
2. Take Ownership: you are accountable: measure goals, processes, and outcomes
3. Invent and Simplify: get creative when finding solutions, but showcase good judgment and instinct; stay curious  
4. Act Rapidly: bias for action - speed and action over inaction.
5. Use Resources Wisely: achieve goals with innovation and resourcefulness
6. Earn Trust: listen and show respect for diverse perspectives; admit mistakes and stay humble
7. Have Backbone; Disagree and Commit: challenge decisions with reason, but once a decision is reached, do everything you can to make it successful
