NEW YORK, July 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- DarioHealth Corp. (Nasdaq: DRIO), a pioneer in the global digital therapeutics market, today announced it has been selected as a digital health provider by Alabama Regional Medical Services (ARMS), a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) accredited by The Joint Commission and designated as a Primary Care Medical Home serving patients in Jefferson, Shelby, St. Clair, and Blount counties.
ARMS selected Dario's Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) to improve the management of hypertension across a diverse patient population, including large numbers of underserved and uninsured patients. More than 40% of Alabamians report having high blood pressure1, and those living in lower-income areas are more likely to be at increased risk and experience worse outcomes.2
The partnership with Dario provides ARMS with innovative technologies and highly personalized support proven to engage patients, including those with technology barriers. The contract represents the second competitive win for Dario's RPM business in the last month.
"Alabama Regional Medical Services joins a growing number of providers and health systems choosing DarioHealth's RPM solution to help address the stubborn challenge of improving patient health behaviors," commented Rick Anderson, President and General Manager of North America at DarioHealth. "Much like other recent provider wins, our selection by ARMS was largely due to our ability to personalize Dario's RPM solution to meet the unique needs of the population while supporting the clinical and financial goals of the organization."
"A core goal at Alabama Regional Medical Services is excellence in primary care," stated Anthony R. Gardner, CEO, Alabama Regional Medical Services. "DarioHealth's RPM will help us meet that goal by extending the reach of our clinical staff and providing the same person-centered care that our patients deserve through innovative technologies."
