We created Bend Health to empower families to get expert care when and where they need it. Because all kids deserve it.
Bend Health, Inc. is a national healthcare provider headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin. Our innovative technology increases access, improves quality, and reduces the cost of mental health care for families.

Bend Health was created by husband/wife team Kurt and Monika Roots. Both have deep experience in healthcare – Kurt in data science and Monika in practice as a child and adolescent psychiatrist. Perhaps even more importantly, they understand firsthand how critical mental health care is for kids.

"Growing up with a brother with special needs in rural Wisconsin highlighted the shortage of experts and how that very directly impacted our family."

"The most frequent problem I have encountered in over 14 years of treating kids is inadequate or inappropriate diagnosis and treatment. It’s time to change that."
Our founding team is made up of successful entrepreneurs who have been in both technology and healthcare for over twenty years in both private practices and at companies like Optum, Oracle, and Teladoc Health. They all care deeply about the problem we’re working together to solve, and bring lots of heart alongside their practical experience.
