Nestor Plana founded Independent Living Systems in 2001 as a way to better manage elderly patients' health care and social services needs. Plana built the company on software that allows caregivers to personalize care and keep track of each patient's needs - including nutritional profiles and arrangements for the right food to be delivered to patients' homes. Patient care is delivered either in their homes or in their communities. Plana sells his service to insurance plans, which save money by keeping their patients at home.
Plana started his health care career as a hospital orderly, eventually founding a health plan before starting Independent Living Systems in 2015. This year, Ernst & Young named Plana Florida health care and life sciences entrepreneur of the year.
