About Duo Health
Duo Health is a value-based medical group founded in 2022 and headquartered in Chicago, IL, purpose-built to deliver comprehensive, relationship-centered care for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) — directly in patients' homes and communities.
Their proprietary Health Mobilization™ platform partners dedicated multidisciplinary care teams with community nephrologists, coordinating every clinician, facility, and community resource required to treat the whole patient. The model is capitated and globally risk-bearing — aligned to delivering better outcomes, not more volume.
Duo Health is backed by Chicago Pacific Founders (CPF), a private equity firm that invests exclusively in healthcare services companies, with a leadership team composed of former healthcare CEOs and senior executives. The organization has the financial backing, strategic guidance, and operational DNA of experienced healthcare-services investors who have built scaled value-based care organizations before.
