We’re performing artists committed to protecting artists and their careers.
Performing artists often navigate the confusing world alone, without the same support system that many other careers provide. One of the most pressing issues is healthcare.
Here’s the story of Goldfinch Health, our first program of more to come in our initiative to help artists build more sustainable careers.
By artists, for artists.
We are a team of artists who understands not only what an artist needs to stay healthy, but also the importance of getting care at the right time and place.
We know what it’s like to worry about a debilitating injury, or to go without treatment because you’re not covered when performing in another state. Even worse, some of us have gone without health benefits altogether, because freelance performing artists are locked out of all but expensive insurance plans that don’t even cover the special care we need.
Goldfinch is the partners with healthcare and insurance professionals to bring health benefits and expertise to performing artists.
It’s healthcare tailored to the unique demands of being an artist in the 21st century.
Healthcare
and benefits made for you.
We, along with artists everywhere — our friends, mentors, and even the most respected performers — all face difficulty finding affordable healthcare that meets the unique demands a music career places on our bodies, our schedules, and our finances.
As artists, we can create just the solution our community needs, so we can all get back to doing what we do best — making great art.
Our Values
We’re pursuing these goals to improve the sustainability of a profession in the performing arts, so that artists can pursue their career goals while enjoying a better quality of life and a healthier community.
Accessible Care
Many professional artists are not provided employer-based health coverage due to the contractual nature of performance work.
Affordable Cost
Expensive individual health insurance plans, which many artists must resort to, cost up to hundreds of dollars a month.
Suitable Coverage
Typical insurance plans are not tailored to the specific healthcare needs of artists, such as injury rehabilitation and preventative care.
Our mission is to mend the unique vulnerabilities that artists face by creating accessible healthcare and insurance solutions that help artists build sustainable careers.
