Nuna Selected by White House and CMS to Join Landmark Health Tech Ecosystem Initiative

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Nuna announced its selection to join the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Health Tech Ecosystem, a landmark public-private initiative designed to transform healthcare for Americans.

The initiative was unveiled at a White House event on Wednesday by President Donald Trump, CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Amy Gleason, Acting Administrator of DOGE. The event was attended by a select group of healthcare leaders and innovators, including Nuna Founder and CEO, Jini Kim. As part of the ecosystem, Nuna will contribute its expertise to two cornerstone efforts: Conversational AI Assistance and Diabetes & Obesity Prevention and Management.

“We’re honored to stand alongside CMS in this bold and necessary step forward in healthcare,” said Jini Kim. “We believe health isn’t just built in the hospital or clinic; it’s forged in the small moments of our daily lives. That’s why we created Nuna, a trusted digital companion to help people succeed on their health journey, one day at a time.”

Nuna’s pledge is centered on its AI-powered digital engagement platform. Nuna’s app empowers patients to confidently manage their chronic conditions through a combination of 24/7 conversational support, motivating gamification, and direct linkage to their clinical care team. This integrated approach drives powerful results: 72% of users with uncontrolled hypertension achieve control and 73% remain active after six months. By connecting daily patient behavior to the clinical team, Nuna bridges a critical gap in today’s healthcare landscape by enabling timely, proactive intervention by care teams for their patients.

“Nuna has been a game changer for patients struggling with chronic conditions,” said David Ansell, MD, of Rush University System for Health and a Nuna development partner. “It extends care from the clinic to the home and its AI enhanced education engages patients in behavioral change that persists over time. The result being better blood pressure control and improved health behaviors. Early results suggest it can crack the code on chronic disease self-management by engaging people to attend to their health when they are in their homes. This type of tech innovation has great potential to transform primary and preventive care across the US.”
