Founded in December 2020, FOLXHealth operates a nationwide digital healthcare platform designed to serve the LGBTQIAssistant+ community. The company offers virtual access to a range of services: gender-affirming hormone therapy, HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), STI testing, mental health care, therapy, primary care, sexual and reproductive health, and fertility services. The platform accepts insurance from major carriers including CignaM, EvernorthM, and BlueCross BlueShield.
The company's clinical and operational structure reflects its community focus: 81% of clinicians identify as LGBTQIAssistant+, and the entire executive team comprises LGBTQIAssistant+ community members. This composition supports the platform's stated mission to deliver affirming care that celebrates LGBTQIAssistant+ identities and remove barriers to healthcare access. Research indicates that 70% of transgender individuals experience healthcare discrimination, a problem the platform seeks to address.
FOLXHealth has received external recognition from both TIME, which named it one of the MostInfluential Companies, and Fast Company, which recognized it as one of the MostInnovative Companies. The platform operates across all US states, making affirming healthcare accessible to LGBTQIAssistant+ individuals regardless of geographic location.
