DarioHealth Launches Insurance Coverage Option for U.S. Consumers

CAESAREA, Israel, March 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- DarioHealth Corp. (NASDAQ: DRIO), a leading global digital health company with mobile health and big data solutions, today announced that it is now offering a 3^rd party insurance coverage option for U.S. consumers who want to have their DarioHealth products reimbursed by insurance.

DarioHealth has signed strategic alliance agreements with partners across the U.S. who will be able to verify insurance coverage benefits, and if approved, will supply and bill the customer's insurance for their Dario™ Blood Glucose Monitoring System and test strip supplies. During DarioHealth's pilot phase of this insurance coverage option, partners were able to verify benefits for customers covered by Aetna and various Blue Cross Blue Shield plans.

Erez Raphael, Chairman and CEO of DarioHealth, commented on the announcement: "We are extremely excited with this new opportunity and will continue seeking out partnerships to expand our insurance coverage reach. Our customers asked about this, and we are happy to be able to provide this option to them. Many of these customers are already paying significant out of pocket cost for a variety of healthcare needs, so lowering their financial burden is tremendously gratifying and a big win for everyone in our community."

With today's announcement, customers will have the ability – exclusively through DarioHealth's website store – to inquire about 3^rd party reimbursement of the company's products, which until now were only available to U.S.-based customers who paid out of pocket for DarioHealth's products.

DarioHealth plans to expand its reach and add additional providers and insurance coverage options for those who want to utilize the insurance benefits available to them.
