Healthcare today is nothing short of amazing. Yet all of it only works when people connect with it. And too often, they don't. Healthcare can be impersonal. Confusing. All elbows.

This is healthcare that knows us, meets us where we are, has a relationship with us, anticipates our needs, and smoothly and consistently connects us with the right care. This is healthcare that helps everyone live better. Ultimately, our mission is to help move people to do things that are good for them!

About Icario
In 2020, Revel + NovuHealth joined forces to create Icario because we knew we could do better together-creating value by uniting pioneering technology, data science, and behavioral insights to make the world a healthier place, one person at a time.

There is an island in the Aegean Sea where people live extremely long lives. They're happy, too. Families are close. They eat well. They exercise. And they stay connected with each other, and not just by smartphone. This got us thinking. What if we apply what we learn from the Blue Zone island of Ikaria (our namesake), add pioneering technology and exabytes of data, and help healthcare connect better with everyone? We'll have a lot more healthy, happy people, and that's a pretty good thing.

As an organization, we're a collaborative team of pioneers, inventors, and systems thinkers. We speak truth, are driven by data, and sweat the details. We're a friendly and easygoing group, but we work hard because we are mission-driven, we know a better way, and we're here to make it happen.
