Dr Michael Greiwe, CEO and Founder of HealthcareLive, tells ITIJ about the business, their network, and their clinicalfirst design

In an era where international travellers and insurers face unprecedented complexity within the US healthcare system, HealthcareLive has emerged as a trusted partner – bridging the gap between global payers and American clinical care.

Founded in 2017 by an orthopaedic surgeon, HealthcareLive delivers a concierge level model of coordinated care, blending digital, virtual, and in-person services across all 50 states. Operating 24/7/365, the network ensures that every case – whether arising from an injury, illness, or routine consultation – receives rapid, expert attention guided by physicians at the forefront of care.

A powerful belief

At the heart of HealthcareLive’s approach is a simple but powerful belief: clinical expertise should drive every decision. By engaging the right medical specialists at the first point of contact, the company expedites diagnoses, streamlines treatment plans, and minimises unnecessary emergency visits or referrals. This clinical-first design produces faster recovery times, higher patient satisfaction, and measurable cost reductions for insurers and employers alike.

HealthcareLive’s nationally integrated network combines tele-urgent care, multispecialty consultations, diagnostics, imaging coordination, and full-spectrum case management – all supported by conciergestyle navigation. Access is effortless: partners can connect through phone, text, secure web portal, or custom QR code, ensuring that travellers and policyholders receive seamless support anytime, anywhere.

The results

The company’s results speak for themselves. Across Fortune 500 employers, maritime operators, and insurance carriers, HealthcareLive has achieved claim-cost reductions exceeding 80%, while maintaining a 98% client-retention rate. Its clinically aligned workflows and transparent reporting enable partners to reinvest savings into service enhancements and growth.

For international and travel-assistance organisations, HealthcareLive offers a dependable extension of their global networks within the US – delivering the same responsiveness, reliability, and clinical rigour that clients expect abroad. From expediting diagnostic imaging to coordinating surgical procedures, the company provides the infrastructure and expertise to manage complex cases efficiently while preserving the human touch that defines true concierge medicine.

Close collaboration

More than a care-management platform, HealthcareLive represents a new standard for collaboration between medical providers and the insurance industry – one that emphasises quality, speed, and accountability. Its mission remains constant: to improve access, elevate care quality, and deliver lasting value for every stakeholder in the healthcare journey.

As the international travel-insurance community gathers this November to shape the future of global healthcare, HealthcareLive invites insurers, assistance companies, and network partners to collaborate with us in managing cases throughout the US. Together, we can redefine what seamless, patient-centred care looks like – where medical expertise and concierge services unite to create better outcomes and shared savings across borders.

Partner with HealthcareLive to deliver seamless, high-quality care across the US – where clinical expertise and concierge coordination create measurable value for global insurers and their travellers.
