Exhibit 99.1 GoHealth Announces Strong Preliminary AEP Operating Results from Efficient Model and Expanded Encompass Solution Encompass-led business transformation drives operating efficiencies resulting in positive cash flow from operations for FY2022 GoHealth continues to be a leading producer for health plan partners, with increased conversion and effectuation rates during 2022 AEP Company to discuss detailed financial performance on upcoming earnings call in late March 2023 CHICAGO, January 17, 2023 – GoHealth, Inc. (Nasdaq: GOCO), a leading health insurance marketplace and Medicare-focused digital health company, today announced positive preliminary operating results achieved during the 2022 Annual Enrollment Period (AEP), for plans effective January 1, 2023, as a result of its Encompass-driven business transformation. The Company will discuss these results in more detail, along with its fourth quarter and full-year 2022 performance, on its upcoming earnings call in late March 2023. The actions taken in the second half of 2022 to focus on quality and drive marketing and sales efficiencies have streamlined GoHealth’s operating model and led to a strong AEP. Preliminary operating results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2022 reflect these improvements: • Achieved positive cash flow from operations in FY2022, meaningfully sooner than the Company's target of cash flow break-even by the first half of 2023 and reflecting a more than $300M improvement in cash flow from operations vs. FY2021. • Matched over 325K beneficiaries with a Medicare Advantage plan that best fits their unique needs by combining high-quality agents and proprietary technology—retaining a leading position with the Company’s health plan partners during AEP. • Attained 48% penetration through the Encompass Connect solution this AEP, ahead of the Company’s 30% goal. • Delivered over 25% improvement in AEP operating efficiency year over year, well ahead of previously stated expectations of up to 20%. “While still early in our year-end close process, these positive preliminary operating results reinforce our confidence that our business transformation is working,” said Vijay Kotte, CEO of GoHealth. “Achieving our cash flow goal ahead of schedule is an important validation of our operating rigor and beneficiary enrollment platform. Our industry-leading technology, top-tier talent, and exceptional execution led to our strong performance this AEP.” Kotte continued, “We are breaking new ground and shifting an industry built on transactional encounters to one centered on trusted relationships. These relationships aren’t only measured by enrollments, but also by the over 600k personalized assessments our agents performed, simplifying the navigation of the complex Medicare health plan shopping process. We are proud to establish the Encompass platform as GoHealth’s new standard operating model. The high-quality enrollments and
trusted relationships with beneficiaries we’ve achieved this AEP have demonstrated the positive impact our powerful new solution can have on this industry and the enhanced value it can create for our shareholders.” About GoHealth, Inc.
