Solera Named to the 2019 CB Insights Digital Health 150 List of Most Innovative Digital Health Startups
NEW YORK, Oct. 3, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — Solera, the nation’s leading network of digital and community health partners, was named to CB Insights’ inaugural Digital Health 150 ranking, showcasing the 150 most promising private digital health companies in the world. The company was selected for its innovative marketplace model that connects consumers to a network of community organizations and digital therapeutics providers paid for outcomes through medical claims payments.
Solera is driving industry leading consumer engagement and clinical results by consolidating highly fragmented community and digital programs to prevent, manage and reverse chronic health conditions into a single marketplace. The company’s technology matches people to the “best fit” programs based on each individual’s needs and preferences as a means to improve health behaviors and clinical outcomes as a complement to traditional medical care. This approach delivers significant value to the health plan consumer by helping them find a program that works for them at no added cost.
CB Insights CEO Anand Sanwal revealed the final Digital Health 150 during Future of Health, a gathering of top executives across some of the largest healthcare institutions, startups, and investment firms. “From pharmaceuticals to patient care, technology is rapidly changing healthcare, and the Digital Health 150 showcases the best startups spearheading innovation and change in the sector,” said Sanwal. “It’s a privilege to use CB Insights’ data to identify and shine a light on these companies, and we look forward to tracking their success in 2019 and beyond.”
The Digital Health 150 companies span the globe, from Canada, China, Germany, Israel, the United States, and the United Kingdom, and are supported by more than 360 investors.
“The Solera team is thrilled to be recognized by CB Insights for our innovative business model that meets consumer needs through the nation’s most comprehensive network of digital and community health partners,” said Brenda Schmidt, CEO of Solera. “We are honored to join such an esteemed group of organizations on the Digital Health 150 list, including some of our network partners such as Lark Health and Virta Health. I look forward to seeing the collective impact our innovations will have on getting and keeping people healthy in the future.”
