VP - Human Resources

COMPANY BACKGROUND

Adobe Population Health (formerly known as Adobe Care & Wellness) began as an idea for a healthcare solution dedicated to improving lives. When Founder Jayme Ambrose was studying for her doctorate, she developed a holistic and integrative healthcare model for a class project. At her professor’s urging, Ambrose took her thesis project from concept to reality.

In 2012, The Beech Group agreed to pilot her model, and in 2016, she signed her first insurance company contract. In 2017, when The Beech Group decided to sell the company, Ambrose was presented with an opportunity to purchase her division.

Adobe Population Health offers proactive care management services through a tech-enabled, hybrid care model delivering whole-person care. By combining proprietary risk stratification and health risk assessments with virtual and in-home care delivery, Adobe gathers a complete picture of at-risk members, coordinating seamlessly with primary care while addressing social determinants, improving outcomes, and lowering costs.

Applying the human touch, Adobe develops real relationships, forging a pathway forward improving both the human and health condition of each member.

Headquartered in Phoenix, AZ Adobe has grown from twelve employees and one office to more than 350 employees and eight offices. The company now provides healthcare solutions and services to more than 500,000 lives and has employees in more than 25 states.
