About OpenLoop

OpenLoop was founded by Midwest natives, Dr. Jon Lensing and Christian Williams, with the mission to enable healing anywhere by servicing all 50 states nationwide. Growing up in rural Iowa, Lensing’s father was one of the area’s only OBGYNs. People drove from all over the state for their appointments. This problem sparked his passion for improving accessibility to care for everyone.

OpenLoop was created from that same motivation to bridge the care gap and bring healthcare into the home. We’re passionate about powering telehealth companies across the US to expand access to affordable, convenient and quality care. We do this by connecting our network of leading clinicians with innovative digital health companies and managing many of the HR and Operations challenges that come with licensing, credentialing, insurance, PC groups and scheduling -- all through our SaaS platform.
