Corporate Structure & Regulatory Compliance
1. The two entities
“GoodLife Health” is a brand operated by two affiliated corporations formed in Arizona. Each is a distinct legal entity, with its own registration, and is in good standing with the Arizona Corporation Commission.
| GoodLife Health Professional Corporation | GoodLife Health Management Inc | |
|---|---|---|
| Role | The clinical entity (the medical practice) | The management services organization (MSO) |
| Entity type | Arizona Domestic Professional Corporation | Arizona Domestic For-Profit Corporation |
| Arizona Business ID | 25068971 | 25068980 |
| Industry | Nurse practitioners' offices — medical care | Office Administrative Services (NAICS 561110); Management Services Organization |
| Status | Active — In Good Standing | Active — In Good Standing |
| Ownership | 100% owned by Kristin Makinajyan, DNP — a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner | Owned 50% / 50% by Dev Chatterjee and Dikran Gligoriu |
| Provides | All medical care: clinical evaluation, telehealth visits, lab ordering and interpretation, prescribing, and care management | Non-clinical services: technology infrastructure, brand, marketing, and back-office administration |
The Professional Corporation maintains its own EIN, bank accounts, licensure, and clinical leadership. Both entities are registered in Arizona, share a principal business address at 1840 N Craycroft Rd, Tucson, AZ 85712, and their good-standing status can be independently verified through the Arizona Corporation Commission's public business search (azcc.gov).
2. How the structure works (PC + MSO)
GoodLife Health uses what is commonly called a “friendly PC / MSO” model — a standard, widely used structure for healthcare technology platforms. The two entities have clearly separated responsibilities:
- GoodLife Health Professional Corporation (the PC, Arizona Business ID 25068971) employs or contracts the licensed clinicians and is solely responsible for the practice of medicine. Every clinical decision — diagnosis, treatment, and prescribing — is made by a licensed clinician acting under the PC. GoodLife Health Professional Corporation is wholly owned by a licensed clinician, Kristin Makinajyan, DNP, and carries its own EIN, banking, and licensure.
- GoodLife Health Management Inc (the MSO, Arizona Business ID 25068980) provides everything that is not the practice of medicine: the technology platform, software, scheduling, subscription billing, marketing, member support, and back-office administration. GoodLife Health Management Inc does not employ the clinicians for clinical purposes, does not make medical decisions, and does not own the medical practice.
- The PC and the MSO operate under a written, fee-for-services Management Services Agreement (MSA). The MSO is paid a fair-market-value, flat monthly fee for its services. That fee is fixed and is not tied to the volume or value of clinical services, referrals, or any individual medical decision.
The patient-facing website at goodlifehealth.ai is the consumer-facing presentation of the medical practice — GoodLife Health Professional Corporation — not of the management entity. Patients contract with, pay, and receive care from the Professional Corporation.
3. Corporate Practice of Medicine (CPOM)
Many states restrict the “corporate practice of medicine” — meaning a corporation owned by non-clinicians may not own a medical practice, employ clinicians to practice medicine, or interfere with clinical judgment. The PC / MSO structure exists to honor those rules.
- The medical practice (the PC) is owned and controlled by a licensed clinician, not by the technology company.
- Clinical judgment is reserved entirely to licensed clinicians. The MSO and its owners do not direct, override, or second-guess medical decisions.
- The MSO supplies administrative and technology services only. This separation of clinical control (PC) from business operations (MSO) is the core of CPOM compliance, and it is the same architecture used by most reputable healthcare technology platforms.
4. GoodLife Health Management Inc — the management entity
GoodLife Health Management Inc is an Arizona-formed for-profit corporation (NAICS 561110, Office Administrative Services) that operates as a Management Services Organization. It provides technology infrastructure, brand, marketing, and back-office administrative services to a single B2B client — GoodLife Health Professional Corporation, a separately incorporated Arizona professional medical corporation with its own EIN, banking, licensure, and clinical leadership. The two entities operate under a fee-for-services Management Services Agreement at a fair-market-value flat monthly fee.
GoodLife Health Management Inc, as a management company, does not:
- interact with patients;
- provide clinical services;
- hold any healthcare license;
- dispense or sell medication, supplements, or pharmaceutical products of any kind; or
- bill patients directly.
The Management Services Organization model is a standard corporate structure used by healthcare technology platforms to comply with state Corporate Practice of Medicine doctrines, which prohibit non-clinician entities from owning medical practices.
- Revenue: monthly Management Services Agreement fees from one B2B client.
- Expenses: cloud infrastructure (AWS, Vercel, Supabase), AI / API services (Anthropic), software licensing, marketing technology, brand development, and contractor fees.
- Founder: Dev Chatterjee, CEO — technology background, with prior platform infrastructure work.

5. What GoodLife Health is — and is not
GoodLife Health is a Direct Primary Care telehealth membership service. Its product is an ongoing clinical relationship, sold as a recurring monthly subscription. That subscription includes telehealth visits with board-certified clinicians, comprehensive lab ordering and interpretation, a personalized care plan, and ongoing clinical management.
GoodLife Health is not, and does not do, the following:
- It is not a pharmacy and not a compounding facility. It does not manufacture, compound, dispense, ship, or take title to any medication.
- It does not sell compounded GLP-1 medications.
- It does not sell dietary supplements, vitamins, pills, or any product direct to consumers. It is not a nutraceutical, supplement, or e-commerce business.
- It does not earn revenue from selling or marking up medication. Patient revenue is membership subscription fees for clinical services.
If you are evaluating GoodLife Health by its business model, the accurate category is telehealth / Direct Primary Care clinical services — not pharmacy, supplements, or product sales.
6. The role of technology and AI
GoodLife Health operates an AI-assisted platform that supports the clinical team. Its role is deliberately bounded:
- It does not make clinical diagnoses or prescribing decisions. Those are made solely by licensed clinicians.
- It is not held out as, and is not, a medical device.
- It does notdirect, override, or replace a clinician's judgment.
- It performs administrative and workflow tasks — scheduling, intake organization, member messaging, surfacing of retrieved records, and clinician workflow support — always under clinician oversight.
7. How medications are handled
When a licensed clinician determines that a medication is clinically appropriate, the prescription is sent to an independent, licensed third-party pharmacy. GoodLife Health does not own that pharmacy and does not resell its products.
- Branded GLP-1 medications(for example, Wegovy or Zepbound) are obtained directly from the manufacturer's own channels (NovoCare, LillyDirect) or through the member's insurance. GoodLife Health does not facilitate compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide; all GLP-1 prescriptions route to FDA-approved branded products.
- Bioidentical hormone therapy, when a clinician prescribes it, is dispensed by an independent, licensed pharmacy.
- In every case the medication relationship is between the member, the prescribing clinician, and a licensed pharmacy. GoodLife Health facilitates the clinical care; it is not the seller of the drug.
8. Compliance posture
- All medical care is delivered by licensed, board-certified clinicians operating under the professional corporation and within their scope of practice and state licensure.
- GoodLife Health operates as a HIPAA-compliant platform. Protected health information is handled under administrative, technical, and physical safeguards, and access is logged.
- The platform is designed so that business operations and clinical decision-making are structurally separated, consistent with Corporate Practice of Medicine requirements.
GoodLife Health operates within the framework of, among others, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the HITECH Act; federal Stark Law and Anti-Kickback Statute principles (reflected in the fair-market-value management fee described above); and Arizona's Corporate Practice of Medicine doctrine.
