Jack Hooper, CEO of health tech startup Take Command Health, is on a mission to bring transparency, advocacy and plain common sense to the world of health insurance. Operating within a broken healthcare system, Jack is a loud proponent of HRAs as a new, better model of benefits and believes health insurance should be at the forefront of healthcare reform discussions. He has been profiled in The New York Times, received two innovation awards from the Director of the FBI, and is a graduate of the Wharton School of Business. His motto? “Health insurance was never meant to be this complicated."

About Us: Take Command Health was born about the same time our founder Jack and his wife Brittany were surprised with a twin pregnancy–a huge blessing but an equally bigger surprise.

Jack and Brittany had just quit their jobs and moved across country so Jack could start graduate school at the Wharton School of Business. Jack sought additional student loans to pay for the twins. He spoke with doctors, hospital administrators, and insurance experts but was shocked to learn that no one could even give him a ballpark answer about how much the twins would cost.

Jack met his co-founder Matt and focused the rest of his time at Wharton researching healthcare cost transparency and laying the foundation for what would become Take Command Health.
