At the heart of modern healthcare lies a crucial question: How do we ensure quality, accessible care for those who need it most? For Amish Purohit, co-founder, president and chief health officer of Arkos Health, the answer begins with reimagining everything from the ground up. His leadership isn’t about small fixes—it’s about transformative solutions that challenge the status quo while preserving the dignity of every individual served.
Over the past two years, Dr. Purohit has steered Arkos Health through a period of extraordinary growth and integration. One of his proudest achievements as a Titan was orchestrating the successful merger of two population health organizations. This wasn’t a simple alignment of operations—it required harmonizing distinct missions, values and structures into one cohesive and purpose-driven enterprise. Dr. Purohit led with compassion and clarity, focusing on creating a unified team that shared a singular goal: providing comprehensive, value-based care to the most underserved populations. The result was not just a stronger company—it was a system capable of greater impact, improved outcomes and scalable innovation.
Core to that success is the organizational culture Dr. Purohit has nurtured. He champions fairness, compassion and purposeful action in every facet of Arkos Health. His belief in doing good while doing well serves as a guiding light, inspiring colleagues to bring empathy into both boardrooms and exam rooms. Whether building strategic partnerships or guiding clinical models, he insists that trust and transparency take precedence. It’s this unwavering dedication to values that helps the company maintain focus in a complex and ever-evolving industry.
Dr. Purohit’s recognition as a Titan 100 Hall of Fame Honoree is a testament to his enduring commitment to thoughtful leadership. He sees the next five years as an opportunity to lead meaningful healthcare evolution, particularly within Medicare Advantage and Medicaid. His aim is to deliver a scalable care model that integrates technology, analytics and person-centered design—without sacrificing the human connection. By staying anchored to mission-driven work and prioritizing those most in need, he plans to set new standards in preventative and long-term care services.
When asked which skill he would master instantly, Dr. Purohit chose mindreading. The desire to truly understand what others think and feel underscores his people-first philosophy. In his view, stronger communication can revolutionize leadership, medicine and the way teams collaborate. This hypothetical talent reflects his real-world aspiration: to eliminate barriers and bring clarity where there is uncertainty.
To the next generation of Titans, Dr. Purohit offers a powerful message. He urges them to commit to doing good in the world, remain fearless in the face of challenge and never compromise their values for convenience. He believes leadership demands both vision and service, and that the most effective leaders are those who never lose sight of the people they serve.
From strategic integrations to transformative care models, Dr. Purohit continues to chart a path that places people at the center of progress. His work at Arkos Health stands as a reminder that sustainable innovation is built not just on systems, but on empathy, courage and conviction.
