RenewRx
RenewRx is a maternal health platform transforming prenatal care between OB visits—with minimal to no cost for patients. Focused on high-risk pregnancies like gestational diabetes (GDM), which disproportionately impacts Medicaid and safety net populations, RenewRx delivers remote patient monitoring and behavior-based nutrition and lifestyle coaching tailored to each patient’s unique social determinants of health. In our 2024 pilot, 100% of participants reached glucose control within 4 weeks, NICU admissions dropped significantly, and 95% reported reduced stress and improved care. By addressing barriers like food access, health literacy, and daily overwhelm, our coaches help patients build sustainable habits that drive better outcomes. The platform integrates seamlessly into provider workflows and enables clinics to bill existing RPM and care management codes—generating new revenue without increasing staff burden. Proven with commercial payers, RenewRx is now expanding to support Medicaid and safety net communities across Colorado.
Joyuus is an evidence-based, clinically validated postpartum care platform integrating physical, mental, social, and real-life challenges into a personalized support system for new mothers. Covering 12 months postpartum, it offers expert-driven content, health risk screening, actionable insights, and red flag assessments for acute care. Joyuus empowers postpartum women to manage their postpartum self-care while providing a clear path to seeking care through risk assessments and resources. Our predictive model (under development with HPE) intends to create the pathway to early identification for mental health conditions like depression and anxiety; physical health conditions like hypertension, cardiac conditions, or hemorrhage; and a link between mental and physical health and SDOH. The goal is to ensure maternal health care is truly integrated, preventative, and inclusive. The Joyuus postpartum platform will ultimately broaden beyond postpartum to become a springboard for broader women’s health data and insights.
