DarioHealth Corp. has launched its digital therapeutics solution for managing chronic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension on Albertsons Marketplace.
Albertsons Cos. is one of the largest retailers in the United States, with more than 2,000 grocery stores under banners such as Albertsons, Safeway, Vons, Jewel-Osco, Shaw’s, Acme, Tom Thumb, Randalls, United Supermarkets, Pavilions, Star Market, Haggen and Carrs. Through more than 1,700 in-store pharmacies across the country, Albertsons services millions of patients each year.
The Dario Digital Diabetes Management System is among the most downloaded and highest rated healthcare apps, with 4.9/5.0 stars from 8,000-plus reviews on the Apple store. Its Net Promoter Score (NPS), a measure of willingness of customers to recommend a company’s products or services to others, is +77, a level that is considered “world class” and the highest in its category, on a scale of -100 to +100.
Dario will be offering its innovative “Membership-in-a-Box” package which is designed to reach consumers with chronic conditions such as diabetes who shop at retail stores. For a fixed price, the customer will receive all they need to get started on their Dario journey for better health: a Dario blood glucose meter, test strips and lancets. Once the user connects their meter to their smart device and activates the membership, they gain access to the entire suite of services offered through the membership just purchased. The member is immediately greeted with the comprehensive Dario onboarding process.
After starting, the member will receive unlimited test strips and supplies based on their personal consumption recorded via their meter. They also will have access to a personal coach for education, support and motivation, which have been clinically proven to produce better outcomes for healthier living.
“Dario is excited to offer its digital therapeutics solution to Albertsons’ large customer base. Dario believes its presence on Albertsons Marketplace will also create more consumer awareness of its technology and related benefits of helping individuals better manage their chronic diseases,” said Rick Anderson, Dario Health’s president and general manager. “This agreement underscores the significant interest in our technology that we are seeing in the retail channel. As individuals become more aware of Dario’s brand, we believe this will catalyze our efforts in other channels as well, including the business to business (B2B) channel which is an important element in the company’s growth strategy.”
