Our take
Much of the care for type 2 diabetes has been based on control and prevention, rather than a direct reversal of the issue. Virta Health is changing that, providing patients with personalized treatment plans, virtual monitoring and patient care.
Instead of depending upon medication, which often needs to be increased over time, the company is tackling the problem at its root and taking a fundamentally different approach that is better for the patient, and more economical for insurers. Among enrolled patients in its clinical trial at one year, 60% achieved diabetes reversal.
While other platforms serve similar markets, the large number of prediabetic and diabetic Americans presents a significant opportunity for growth. The company is well-funded and continues to expand the reach of its telehealth-powered diabetes reversal treatment - positioning itself for widespread adoption as it addressies this critical healthcare challenge.
