Gravie
“Can a health benefits administrator for SMBs own the full stack — self-funded plan design, member payment flexibility, and ICHRA administration — to become the financial and benefits OS for small employers?”
Gravie began as a health insurance marketplace helping individuals and SMB employees compare and purchase individual health plans. It evolved into a full health benefits administrator offering its own self-funded group plan (Comfort®) with a no-deductible, no-copay design targeting small and midsize employers. The company has layered on financial services through Gravie Pay® — a zero-interest virtual credit card product for out-of-pocket healthcare costs — and Gravie ICHRA™ to modernize employer-sponsored benefits through individual coverage health reimbursement arrangements. The company's embedded finance angle is embedding healthcare payment flexibility (BNPL-style patient financing) directly into its health plan product.
