New research suggests that virtual-first care can improve the results of chronic care programs.
The data underlying the research comes from Omada Health, which offers virtual-first care programs for a number of chronic illnesses, including diabetes, hypertension, musculoskeletal conditions and behavioral health issues.
To look at the effectiveness of these programs, Omada pulled together more than 1 billion actionable data points from 100 million devices across all programs. It also collected 13 million care messages spanning these programs.
The Omada Insights Lab found that virtual-first care generated some significant successes. For example, it concluded that 94% of members engaged with a COVID health coach in the first week were more likely to achieve the health outcomes caregivers had in mind.
