Co-founded in 2021 by Rajaie Batniji MD, PhD, and Sanjay Basu, MD, PhD, Waymark is a Public Benefit Corporation that seeks to improve healthcare access and outcomes among Medicaid beneficiaries. It will empower existing Medicaid primary care providers with technology-enabled, community-based care teams to deliver a set of interventions that are rarely available to Medicaid patients. The company designs technology and service delivery for communities and individuals that have been historically excluded, because of language, race, ethnicity, poverty, substance use, immigration status, gender or sexual identity, or other characteristics viewed as “other” or “lesser than”.
