Chronic care management company Ayble Health has partnered with health system Mayo Clinic to provide a combined virtual and in-person care model for patients with chronic gastrointestinal (GI) conditions. The hybrid care model will be available via employers and health plans.

The new care model combines AI-guided personalization and expert health coaching to address individual patient needs comprehensively. If the patient is matched for in-person care, they will receive initial care at Mayo Clinic, after which patients continue with Ayble for ongoing nutritional and behavioral support in their local community. 

Analyst QuickTake: This partnership follows Ayble Health’s recent D2C app launch in April 2023 , where the company expressed its aim for clinician endorsement and integration of the app with existing treatment plans. The company plans to distinguish itself from competitors, such as Oshi Health and Vivante Health , through its unique coach-first model via strategic partnerships enabling cost-effective, personalized care at scale.
