Curi Recognized as 2026 Wellbeing First Champion
Curi, a leading healthcare advisory firm, has been awarded the title of 2026 Wellbeing First Champion by ALL IN: Wellbeing First for Healthcare, a coalition headed by The Dr. Lorna Breen Foundation. This accolade marks the second consecutive year that Curi has earned this prestigious recognition, reaffirming its steadfast commitment to improving mental healthcare accessibility for healthcare providers.
As part of the verification process for the Wellbeing First Champion designation, Curi’s medical professional liability insurance applications have been examined to ensure they do not contain intrusive or stigmatizing inquiries concerning mental health. Notably, Curi was the first medical professional liability insurer to achieve this distinction back in 2025.
"Healthcare professionals dedicate their lives to caring for others, so it’s crucial that they can prioritize their own mental wellbeing without the fear that seeking help might jeopardize their careers,” stated Jason Sandner, CEO of Curi. He added, “Receiving this recognition for a second year signifies that we are not simply making transient changes; this illustrates our long-term commitment to the wellbeing of the physicians and healthcare providers we serve."
The annual initiative by ALL IN Wellbeing First for Healthcare is aimed at dismantling policies that hinder healthcare professionals from pursuing mental health support. The coalition aspires to create an atmosphere where clinicians can obtain necessary care without fearing repercussions in their professional lives.
Corey Feist, CEO and Co-Founder of the Dr. Lorna Breen Foundation, emphasized, "While updating paperwork is a notable step, true transformation is achieved when organizations intentionally alter the surrounding culture. Curi excels as the only professional liability insurer in the nation that goes beyond mere policy modifications to engage in educational initiatives, promote open dialogue, and advocate for these necessary changes.” He further noted that through these cultural shifts, Curi is fostering an environment where healthcare professionals can feel secure in seeking assistance and support.
This ongoing commitment reflects a broader movement within the healthcare landscape to prioritize the mental health of its workforce. It underscores the dire need for structural changes to support those who dedicate their lives to caring for others. By removing barriers and promoting dialogue around mental health, Curi is paving the way for a systemic change that benefits not just healthcare workers but the overall healthcare framework as well.
