Omada Health was one of the first companies to prove that digital health programs could actually prevent and manage chronic diseases at scale. Founded in 2011, the company started with a CDC-recognized Diabetes Prevention Program delivered entirely online. Participants got connected devices, a personal health coach, and a structured curriculum — all through their employer or health plan.
Since then, Omada has expanded into management programs for type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and musculoskeletal conditions. The approach combines human coaching with connected devices (smart scales, blood pressure monitors, glucose meters) and behavioral science. Coaches work with participants through the app, adjusting plans based on real-time data from the devices.
Omada works primarily through a B2B model, selling to employers, health plans, and health systems. Over 1,800 enterprise clients offer Omada programs to their members, covering millions of eligible lives. The company has published peer-reviewed research showing its programs reduce healthcare costs and improve clinical outcomes. Omada has raised over $500 million and remains one of the most established names in digital chronic disease management.
