NEW YORK– Marché Health, a trusted source for empowering better decisions around digital health, today announced the launch of Marché Health Digital Health Marketplace and Community, the most comprehensive resource for identifying, evaluating and rolling out digital tools. Debuting with an initial focus on telemedicine, remote patient monitoring, AI drug discovery and digital therapeutics, the marketplace is connecting organizations seeking digital tools with suppliers.
Deloitte’s 2020 Survey of U.S. Physicians found that 83% of physicians believed that patient-generated data from apps, wearables and sensors would be integrated into care delivery as standard practice within the next five to 10 years. COVID-19 has sped up that timeline and shown that digital tools can enhance care plans, improve the patient and clinician experience, and lower costs, encouraging a flood of new solutions entering the market. The resulting confusion has delayed digital health adoption and hampered progress.
“Cardiovascular disease is the most common chronic disease with serious implications if not managed and remotely monitored accordingly,” said Philip Siberg, CSO and co-founder of Coala Life, an early innovator on the Marché Health Marketplace. “After successfully rolling out our remote heart monitor in Europe, we expanded our focus to address cardiovascular disease in the United States. By partnering with Marché Health, we are reaching more practices and delivering devices to patients who experience heart disease symptoms, so they can be diagnosed sooner.”
Taking an independent view of the industry, Marché Health is creating a trusted digital health marketplace that infuses data with community engagement to educate, connect and empower individual stakeholders from across healthcare, including health systems, payers, biopharma and entrepreneurs. Beginning with about 350 solutions that customers can evaluate, implement and review, more categories and companies are added daily.
“The recent boom in digital health has led to a flood of new entrants that has made it difficult for healthcare organizations to implement solutions that are a fit for their practice,” said Dr. Manny Fombu, founder of Marché Health. “Marché Health simplifies the procurement process for global digital innovation that improves care while lowering costs. Our comprehensive marketplace and community levels the playing field so that clinicians, pharma, payers and vendors can all learn from each other and discover the best matched resources for transforming care.”
Backed by Pandion Optimization Alliance, a leading group purchasing organization (GPO) ensuring hospitals receive the products and services needed across all care settings, Marché Health helps organizations adopt the technology resources needed for meeting the quadruple aim of better outcomes. The company is also a strategic partner and certified sponsor of Premier, Inc., a leading healthcare improvement company working with more than 4,100 hospitals and health systems.
