Our Story
HealthPolity was founded as a newsletter about the business of healthcare.
As a journalist and former Director of Content Marketing for US Acute Care Solutions, founder Russell Max Simon had originally set out to explain and illuminate what was going on in the industry—everything from physician group consolidation to payor and provider incentives, and the endless struggle to recruit clinicians in difficult-to-staff locations.
Soon, though, former colleagues, many physicians who had started their own companies or moved into new leadership roles, began asking for help. Help with marketing strategy, with content, and with articulating and executing brand strategy in an increasingly competitive and tumultuous market.
Thus was born HealthPolity as a B2B Content Marketing Agency. Today, Russell combines deep industry expertise, the cutting-edge capabilities of AI, an extended pool of freelance writers, and his innate reverence for the written word to provide agile, impactful content marketing competitive with traditional, higher-cost content marketing agencies.
