Insights

The new Medicaid contract represents a strategic expansion in a challenging but growing market segment. With this being Dario's eighth health plan and third Medicaid client, the company is establishing a strong foothold in serving underserved populations. The initial 10,000 Medicaid member pilot program, while modest in size, provides a foundation for potential expansion.

The contract's immediate revenue contribution and the company's proven track record in engaging Medicaid populations are positive indicators. The cardiometabolic solution suite deployment demonstrates market validation of Dario's comprehensive approach. However, investors should note that Medicaid contracts typically have lower margins compared to commercial plans and success in the pilot phase will be important for long-term value creation.

This deal's significance lies in its market positioning rather than immediate financial impact. The Medicaid market represents a substantial growth opportunity, with over 80 million Americans enrolled. Dario's success in securing referral business through demonstrated results with another regional plan indicates strong product-market fit and potential for network effects in client acquisition.

For a company with a $29M market cap, establishing credibility in the Medicaid space could open doors to larger contracts. The focus on digital engagement for hard-to-reach populations addresses a critical healthcare delivery challenge, though investors should monitor member adoption rates and retention metrics as key performance indicators.

 The new contract marks the eighth health plan for Dario and will contribute to revenues starting immediately.

NEW YORK, Oct. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- DarioHealth Corp. (Nasdaq: DRIO) ("Dario" or the "Company"), a leader in the global digital health market, announced today a new contract with a regional health plan in the Medicaid space, which has launched with the full suite of cardiometabolic solutions.

The launch with this new health plan marks the third Medicaid client for Dario, continuing a solid momentum within the Medicaid space. The newly signed health plan, familiar with Dario's results with another regional health plan, chose Dario based on the Company's success and reputation for driving engagement among diverse populations. Dario's ability to drive highly personalized member experiences across a wide range of channels and support modalities is attractive to Medicaid plans managing members with limited access to traditional channels. Starting with an initial pilot program, Dario will work closely with the health plan to bring its proven solutions to the plan's population, which includes nearly 10,000 Medicaid members.

"We believe that this contract demonstrates our ability to drive user engagement with historically hard-to-reach Medicaid populations, a challenge that few in our industry have successfully addressed," said Steven Nelson, Chief Commercial Officer at Dario. "Medicaid members present unique engagement challenges for digital health solutions, but our track record and novel approach to engagement has proven that Dario is ideally suited for this population. We pride ourselves on delivering value to our clients, which in this case has paved the way to this new relationship, which we estimate will contribute to our revenues in the fourth quarter of 2024. We see much more opportunity to expand in this segment of the market and we are committed to broadening our strategy to further our focus on Medicaid in 2025."
