Blue Marble Health

What Blue Marble Health does

Blue Marble Health (legal entity Blue Marble Rehab Inc) is a privately held telehealth and remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM) company founded in 2010 by Sheryl Flynn, PT, PhD, and headquartered in Altadena, California. The company develops and operates "Health in Motion," a digital platform that delivers avatar-guided exercise programs, electronic patient-reported outcomes (e-PROs), educational content, and clinician dashboards for chronic disease management across conditions including COPD, fall prevention, total knee replacement recovery, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson's disease. The platform combines a patient-facing mobile/web application with a clinician-facing Performance and Assessment Tool (PAT) that provides population dashboards, patient monitoring, case management alerts, and automated RTM billing code pairing. The company holds the distinction of being the first CHAP (Community Health Accreditation Partner) verified digital health platform for home health agencies, positioning it for the Value-Based Purchasing environment.

The platform's efficacy has been validated through approximately a decade of NIH-funded research and peer-reviewed publications, with documented outcomes including 79.2% usability scores, 100% of COPD participants achieving minimum clinically important differences, and high adherence rates across fall prevention and COPD cohorts. Blue Marble Health operates a sales-led go-to-market targeting home health agencies, healthcare providers, and research institutions, with subscription-based platform licensing as the primary revenue stream. The company has built an ecosystem of more than 20 research and clinical collaborators including Johns Hopkins, Duke, Cedars Sinai, UC San Diego, UC San Francisco, Wake Forest, USC Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, and the COPD Foundation, and has expanded into a BREATHE digital asthma platform co-developed with Allergy & Asthma Network. Over its history the company has secured approximately $10.7 million in non-dilutive NIH SBIR grant funding across 19 awards from institutes including the National Institute on Aging, the National Institute on Deafness and Communications Disorders, and the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute. The company employs 1-10 people and has not disclosed venture capital or external growth funding.

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Health Recovery Solutions (HRS): HRS is a leading remote patient monitoring platform sold to home health agencies and hospitals, with a focus on chronic condition monitoring and reducing readmissions. It is the most direct competitor to Blue Marble's RTM-for-home-health positioning.
• Vivify Health: Vivify (now part of Optum) provides RPM and care management platforms to providers and payers, including chronic disease programs. It competes for the same home health and chronic care buyer set with a broader telehealth suite.
• Biofourmis: Biofourmis offers AI-driven remote monitoring and virtual care for chronic conditions including heart failure, COPD, and oncology. Its home-based monitoring and billing-aligned analytics overlap directly with Blue Marble's RTM stack.

Broad incumbents

• ResMed (MATRIX CARE / Propeller Health): ResMed is a large incumbent in respiratory care (including COPD) and acquired Propeller Health for digital respiratory adherence. Its pulmonary rehab and respiratory RPM capabilities compete with Blue Marble's COPD program.
• Caregility: Caregility offers virtual care and telemonitoring platforms deployed across health systems and post-acute settings. Its reach into hospitals and skilled nursing overlaps with Blue Marble's chronic-disease remote monitoring use cases.
• Medtronic Care Management Services: Medtronic operates large-scale remote monitoring and care management programs (e.g., for heart failure, COPD) tied to its implanted and connected devices. It is comparable on chronic-condition RPM infrastructure and payer-aligned programs.

Emerging players

• Rimidi: Rimidi is a chronic disease management platform integrating RPM data into the EHR for conditions like diabetes, heart failure, and COPD. It overlaps on chronic-condition RPM but is clinician-EHR-led rather than home-health-vertical.
• WellDoc: WellDoc provides digital therapeutic and RPM solutions for chronic disease (notably diabetes and cardiovascular). It is comparable as a condition-specific virtual care platform with regulatory-grade evidence and reimbursement alignment.
• Vivante Health: Vivante Health is a digital GI and chronic condition platform combining RPM, nutrition, and coaching. It overlaps with Blue Marble's condition-specific virtual rehab model in the employer/payer space.
• Conversa Health: Conversa provides automated virtual care and chat-based chronic condition management to health systems and providers. It competes in adjacent virtual care workflows feeding into the same home health and chronic care buyers.
