Teladoc Health Unveils Next-Generation Cardiometabolic Health Program to Combat Chronic Disease
Teladoc Health (NYSE: TDOC), a global leader in virtual healthcare, has announced the launch of its next-generation Cardiometabolic Health Program aimed at improving overall population health and preventing the progression of chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and obesity.
Expanding on its successful chronic condition management offerings, the new program takes a comprehensive approach to support optimal cardiometabolic health across diverse populations. It focuses on encouraging healthier lifestyle choices and targets key health indicators, including diet, physical activity, sleep, stress, weight management, blood lipids, glucose levels, blood pressure, and nicotine exposure. These factors align with the American Heart Association’s Life’s Essential 8—a set of measures vital for maintaining cardiovascular health.
With just 12% of U.S. adults currently achieving optimal cardiometabolic health, the need for proactive support is clear. Without proper intervention, most working-age adults are at risk of developing serious and costly chronic conditions. Teladoc Health’s enhanced program addresses this urgent need by equipping members with tools, expert guidance, and personalized support to drive meaningful health outcomes.
Key features of the updated program include:
- BetterSleep premium subscription – Access to the award-winning app that enhances sleep quality and overall well-being.
- One-on-one support from registered dietitians – Includes medical nutrition therapy and tailored nutrition plans.
- Targeted outreach from expert health coaches – Proactive support for members identified as high risk.
- Convenient at-home testing – Easy testing for critical health markers like A1c and blood lipids.
- Advanced health insights – Real-time data from patient-reported inputs and Teladoc Health’s connected devices (blood glucose meters, blood pressure monitors, connected scales, and CGMs) help members track and improve outcomes.
- Seamless care integration – Coordination with Teladoc Health’s 24/7 virtual care and primary care services, along with partners managing related conditions like joint pain and digestive health.
“Nutrition, activity, sleep, and stress management play a significant role in overall health. Our program addresses these key pillars because that’s what truly makes a difference—both in managing existing conditions and preventing disease progression,” said Kelly Bliss, President of U.S. Group Health at Teladoc Health. “By connecting the dots between conditions and risk factors, and giving people the right tools and coaching, better health becomes possible.”
This enhanced offering builds on Teladoc Health’s proven success in managing individual chronic conditions. In its diabetes program, 58% of more than 210,000 members reached remission-level A1c levels. Meanwhile, 88% of participants in its hypertension program improved or maintained healthy blood pressure after one year. The company also reports that integrating digital mental health support accelerates progress across its diabetes, hypertension, and weight management programs.
In a strong show of confidence, Teladoc Health backs its program with a value-based pricing model—placing 100% of its program fees at risk to ensure measurable outcomes for its customers.
This launch is part of a broader strategy to enhance Teladoc Health’s impact on chronic care outcomes. In recent months, the company has expanded its at-home testing capabilities, improved weight management offerings, and introduced new partnerships and platform features to help more individuals access and enroll in relevant care programs.
