Led by co-founder Josh Itano, CEO, CareCar is a groundbreaking tech-enabled supplemental benefit manager and market network platform for home care and medical transport. It partners with health plans to support seniors living independently by connecting them with a reliable network of committed caregivers and currently specializes in providing high quality non-emergency medical transportation services.
A seasoned professional and empathetic entrepreneur, Josh has used his diverse experience to shape his mission: to have a positive impact on the lives of others. Before co-founding CareCar and delving into the healthcare industry, Josh began his career in the world of US Defense contracts. During his tenure there, he gained invaluable expertise and skills, working on critical projects that demanded precision, dedication, and a strong sense of responsibility. This early experience instilled in him a profound appreciation for service and a keen understanding of the importance of finding innovative solutions to complex challenges.
Driven by a desire to address pressing issues in healthcare, Josh transitioned to the healthcare sector, where he took on a pivotal role as an early hire at Alignment Healthcare, a tech-enabled managed care organization with an innovative and proactive clinical model. It was during his tenure there that Josh witnessed firsthand the barriers to care faced by the senior population. This eye-opening experience became a catalyst for his entrepreneurial journey and led to the cofounding of CareCar.
