Both firms commercialised unique and powerful health care platforms, which when combined, can deliver unparalleled support to patients with diabetes.
WellDoc introduced BlueStar, a mobile prescription therapy (MPT) powered by the company’s clinical and behavioural Automated Expert Analytics System.
The FDA cleared BlueStar MPT is only available with a prescription and provides real-time guidance to people with type 2 diabetes and clinical decision support for their health care provider.
By using a prior version of BlueStar in randomised controlled trials, the company showed significant clinical outcomes, achieving a 1.9-point reduction in A1C, the gold standard for measuring whether a person’s diabetes is in control.
