Welcome back to another edition of Entrepreneur Rx! This week, John has a conversation full of insights with Rachel Mertensmeyer, CEO &amp; Founder of Rivia Health. Rivia Health works with healthcare provider organizations to make it easier for patients to pay and understand their bills and benefit from available payment plans. Rachel got crushed by a revolving door, suffering a severe head and spine injury that resulted in 38 medical bills across 11 different healthcare providers and over $10,000 in medical debt, an experience that made her realize how difficult it is for patients to pay their bills without the help of modern technology. She put her past entrepreneurial experience to use and founded Rivia Health, a journey that took her through an entire process to find the right product-market fit and business model. Rachel explains the value Rivia brings working in the background of healthcare practices to their patients and reflects on the challenges it faced with investors along the way. Tune in to learn how Rivia Health is making healthcare bills less scary!

RX65: Entrepreneur Rx Interview with Rachel Mertensmeyer, CEO & Founder of Rivia Health Inc.

Rachel Mertensmeyer has long been captivated by understanding the consumer mindset and making people’s lives better with product innovation. She has a decade of marketing management experience in Fortune 100 companies including Unilever and Avon in New York and BBDO and WPP in Shanghai. Rachel’s first professional opportunity supported her entrepreneurial nature as she was tasked with the ground floor development of sales distribution in Eastern Asia for an American wine company. In 2016, while living in New York City, Rachel  experienced medical bill mayhem personally. This experience spurred her to apply her consumer product innovation background to create a better medical payments solution for patients. This is how RexPay was born in 2018. As a leader, Rachel places great focus on creating a holistic, respectful and cooperative work environment for her team. On a more personal note, Rachel places a high value on physical health and wellbeing for herself and for those around her. In her free time, she can be found teaching yoga, trail running in the deserts of Arizona, or making time for her friends and family.
