Welcome to SimoHealth

When my son Simon was born, he experienced several undiagnosed medical problems. My wife Tracy and I spent hours dealing with endless forms and bills from doctors and our insurance company. 

While we were able to find a medical support group to help with diagnosis issues, we really didn't know where to turn for help with the nuts and bolts of navigating the healthcare system. Overwhelmed, we turned to the Berkeley Parents Network for advice. (Berkeley Parent's Network is a fabulous resource. Its website contains thousands of pages of recommendations and a parent-to-parent newsletter for the community of parents in the Berkeley, CA area. At the time there were over 4000 members--now they say over 11,000 members).

It turns out that others shared our frustration of keeping things  under control while managing incoming bills, out of pocket expenses, and  tracking doctor's visits, and the best advice we received was how somebody kept extensive manila folders in piles on the floor of their dining room. 

Out of that difficult time came the idea for SimoHealth (named after Simon of course). A survey I posted to the Parents Network about interest in a software program to manage medical histories and health expenses showed healthy interest, so I built a team by recruiting friend and consumer product development chief Marty Fisher, President of AOL Techonology, as a co-founder along with his son, Todd Fisher a recent MSCS grad from Lehigh University.

Additionally, marketing gurus Lisa Gansky, former CEO of Ofoto, joined as a board member--and John Monson, former VP Marketing of Intuit, and Healthcare industry expert Aaron Brown, former President of Innovus, a Blue Shield of CA subsidiary, joined us as advisors.

We have also tapped an extraordinary technical team to help us build the product on the most advanced development platform available today (more on that later). The result is a free preview version of SimoHealth, Consumer Edition, the software product which I'm very pleased to present to you today.

SimoHealth is a way to track health expenses and organize information about the medical history of all loved ones, including your pets. 

I use it and it's helped us tremendously. I even found money that providers owed me. Turns out I'd successfully appealed a  denied claim and the provider was paid twice. This was money that I didn't know I was owed and nobody was going to offer to me.  It was my use of SimoHealth (testing the beta version actually) that alerted me to the hundreds of dollars I overpaid and I was able to get reimbursed.

Also, when we take Simon to a new doctor all I have to do is print out his Personal Health History and all the info the doctor needs is right there - past and current medications, conditions, allergies, etc. The best part is, with all his information organized and accessible, we're in a better position to get the best possible care for Simon.

I invite you to try SimoHealth. Reduce some of that frustration we all feel when it comes to bills and forms.  Save yourself  money by making sure you get 100% of your insurance benefits. And enjoy a little peace of mind by helping your family get the best care.

In Good Health,
