Health IQ

Health IQ was a venture-backed insurtech founded in 2013 in Mountain View, California that offered lower-cost life insurance to health-conscious individuals, later pivoting in 2019 to selling Medicare Advantage plans to seniors. Backed by a16z and others (~$200M raised), the company laid off staff in December 2022 and filed for Chapter 7 liquidation on August 30, 2023. As of this enrichment pass the healthiq.com domain resolves to a parked "domain may be for sale" page, and the company operates no public website, developer portal, or API. Retained in the network as a defunct a16z portfolio lead with no enrichable API surface.

Health IQ is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Insurance, Insurtech, Life Insurance, and Medicare.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Insurance regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
