This letter is in response to the comment of the Staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the above-referenced filing of Healthcare Assurance Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) set forth in your letter, dated November 4, 2020.

1. Staff’s comment: We note your example on page iii of a 20% Total Return results in founders shares converting into 1,666,667 Class A shares.  Please revise this disclosure to clarify, if true, that this example assumes a Closing Share Count of the 50,000,000 shares from the initial public offering and no PIPE Securities.  Further, please tell us what consideration you gave to providing an additional example that is consistent with the assumption that the Closing Share Count is 100,000,000, as you have assumed in your example on page 124, or a cross reference to the more detailed sample calculations in “Description of Securities – Alignment Shares.”

Response: The Company has revised the disclosures on pages ii, iii and 124 to clarify the illustrative Closing Share Count of 50,000,000 and 100,000,000, respectively, and included a cross reference on page iii to the more detailed sample calculations in “Description of Securities - Alignment Shares.”

We hope that the foregoing has been responsive to the Staff’s comment. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact Christian O. Nagler at Kirkland & Ellis LLP at (212) 446-4660.

Sincerely,

/s/ Hemant Taneja
