Reliance Health Global

Reliance Health Global (operating at getreliancehealth.com) is a digital health insurer and benefits platform engineered for emerging markets. Founded in 2015 by Dr. Femi Kuti, Opeyemi Olumekun, and Matthew Mayaki, and headquartered in Lagos, Nigeria, the company reimagines employee healthcare by making quality care delightful, affordable, and accessible. Traditional insurance models often fail in emerging markets due to fragmented provider networks, high costs, and poor digital adoption. Reliance Health solves this by offering customizable health plans paired with a mobile-first telemedicine platform and a curated network of partnered healthcare providers. Under the hood, its technology integrates AI-driven diagnostics, real-time claims processing, and localized provider partnerships to deliver seamless care. This allows businesses—particularly SMEs—to attract talent with competitive benefits while employees gain instant telemedicine access, cashless hospital visits, and preventive care tools. Backed by $48M in total funding, including a Series B round led by General Atlantic and investments from Partech and Picus Capital, Reliance Health serves over 100,000 beneficiaries across Nigeria and Egypt with ambitions to expand globally.
