About Livara Health

Livara is reimagining musculoskeletal care for value-based provider groups and health plans. With an interdisciplinary, biopsychosocial, and high-touch clinical model, Livara has a proven track record of working with payors, risk-bearing providers, and health systems to improve outcomes, reduce costs, and fill gaps in the current musculoskeletal (MSK) care model. 

Livara, created by way of the legacy SpineZone business alongside investments by A1 Health Ventures, Martin Ventures, Polaris Partners, and Providence Ventures, operates a hybrid clinical model. The company’s digital care delivery, care management, and care navigation platform offers online physical exercise and biopsychosocial services in 14 states while in-person care is provided through 10 company-owned SpineZone clinic sites in Southern California and partnerships with 3rd party clinics elsewhere. The high touch, multi-service focus allows patients to get the high quality care they need. 

With the MSK space being extremely fragmented and lacking cohesion between Primary Care Physicians, Physical Therapists, Pan Management, and Surgeons, there are many barriers to providing value-based care. Livara’s fully integrated pathway brings everything together in one place, creating a seamless experience. The company brings a highly clinical and data-driven approach to MSK care, with a solution focused on 3 main pillars: care planning, care delivery, and care navigation. The system is designed to risk stratify members and focus resources where the biggest impact is going to be. 

Livara is pioneering value-based contracts in the MSK space, headed by CEO Rob Cohen and Founder and Chief Medical Officer (CMO) Kamshad Raiszadeh. Unlike most competitors, the company takes on risk and focuses on Medicare and fully insured populations, with key partners that include Elevance, Providence, Sharp and Scripps.
