Miga and Sana Benefits announce partnership
Miga, a virtual heart health clinic, has entered into a partnership with health insurance startup Sana Benefits.
The partnership, which has launched in over 10 states, provides over 25k Sana Benefits members with access to Miga’s heart health program for obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia.
Founded in 2021 and based in San Francisco, Miga provides patients with a “personalized plan” to tackle obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol. Each member completes a heart health evaluation, including labs, and receives a plan that includes “data monitoring, lifestyle interventions, and, when appropriate, medications.”
Miga has closed a $12 million round of funding last year.
“Our partnership with Sana is an exciting milestone in our journey to build the future of heart health. The status quo is unacceptable, with millions of preventable heart attacks and strokes. Yet a new paradigm in care is possible through collaborations like this one. We are excited to bring our comprehensive heart health program to Sana Benefits members across the United States, in order to improve outcomes in obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia.” – Jarrad Aguirre, M.D., co-founder and CEO of Miga.
“At Sana, we are on a mission to make healthcare more understandable, accessible, and affordable for everyone. That’s why we are so excited by our partnership with Miga, which allows us to expand access to low-cost, high-quality clinical services for heart health. Since most cardiovascular disease is preventable, we see a significant opportunity to improve outcomes for thousands of Sana Benefits members through Miga’s comprehensive heart health program.” – Will Young, co-founder and CEO of Sana.
