Amil

Amil is a Brazilian healthcare company founded in Rio de Janeiro in 1978 by Edson de Godoy Bueno. Its business centers on medical and dental health plans for individuals, families, and employers. The company offers plans with national or regional coverage, and its official site describes options that include copayments and reimbursement. Its Amil Dental offering provides access to a dental network and online contracting, while the premium Amil Black line is positioned around convenience and an elevated care experience. Amil serves customers across Brazil through a network of accredited healthcare providers and customer-service channels. Its digital and service tools include online appointment scheduling, support for beneficiaries and employer clients, information on provider-network updates, and customer assistance. The company also describes health programs and care pathways, telemedicine-related services, and urgent and emergency support. Its site reports more than six million medical and dental plan beneficiaries as of March 2026, alongside more than 480,000 small-business and corporate clients; these are company-reported figures and refer to the dates stated on the site. The company has undergone major ownership and business changes. After expanding through acquisitions, including its 2009 acquisition of control of Medial Saúde, Amil became part of UnitedHealth Group in 2012. In December 2023, UnitedHealth Group approved a sale of Amil to entrepreneur José Seripieri Júnior, as reported in the supplied Portuguese-language Wikipedia material. In 2024, Amil combined its hospital operations with Dasa to form Rede Américas, in which Amil and Dasa each held half of the new company, according to that same source. Amil remains an active healthcare brand whose public-facing offer combines health-plan coverage, dental plans, provider access, and care-support services.

Amil was founded in 1978 in Rio de Janeiro by Edson de Godoy Bueno as a Brazilian medical-assistance company. Its subsequent development centered on health-plan services and an extensive network of accredited providers. The supplied Portuguese-language account describes the company as having grown into a major operator in Brazil, with medical coverage and a broad provider network spanning hospitals, clinics, medical offices, laboratories, and imaging-diagnostic centers. An important expansion step came in 2009, when Amil acquired control of Medial Saúde. In 2012, Amil became part of UnitedHealth Group, placing the Brazilian company within the international healthcare group. Amil continued to provide health-plan products and related services in Brazil, including medical plans and dental offerings. The company's present official website describes coverage for individuals, families, and businesses, options with national or regional coverage, and services such as online appointments and customer support. It also promotes Amil Black and Amil Dental, as well as health programs and care pathways. The site reports more than six million medical and dental plan beneficiaries as of March 2026; this is a dated company-published figure rather than a timeless measure. The ownership situation changed again in 2023. The supplied Portuguese-language Wikipedia material says that UnitedHealth Group approved the sale of Amil in December of that year to entrepreneur José Seripieri Júnior. It gives the transaction value as R$11 billion, including R$9 billion in assumed debt. Because these transaction details come from the supplied secondary source rather than the official pages, they should be understood as that source's account. The supplied material also reports that Amil combined its hospital operations with Dasa in 2024 to create Rede Américas, with Amil owning 50% and Dasa holding the remaining stake; it notes that some hospital assets were not part of the deal. Amil's current public presentation emphasizes its role as a health-plan provider and service platform in Brazil. Its website describes medical and dental coverage, provider-network information, online scheduling, customer channels, employer-facing contract information, and health-support programs. It also identifies a mission of care and lists values including performance, agility, relationships, welcoming service, excellence, and courage. These materials show the brand's current service orientation while the supplied historical account documents its founding, acquisition-led growth, change of corporate affiliation, reported sale, and hospital-business combination.
