Side Health

What Side Health does

Side Health is a privately held, California-based telehealth company founded in 2022 that delivers chronic care management to patients in the San Francisco and Los Angeles metropolitan areas. Its core product is a Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) program in which connected devices — blood pressure cuffs and glucometers from Tenovi, weight scales from Body Trace, and pulse oximeters from iPulse — automatically transmit patient vitals to the care team in real time, triggering proactive outreach when readings exceed thresholds and supplemented by monthly virtual wellness checks. Around this core, Side Health has assembled a multi-condition service portfolio covering hypertension, heart failure, diabetes, COPD, asthma, obesity, sleep apnea (via the FDA-cleared WatchPAT home sleep study), and allergies (via sublingual immunotherapy), along with medication management, weight management, and preventive health modules.

The platform is delivered through a contracted clinical network: Strawberry Creek Medical Group, P.A. supplies the licensed U.S.-based physicians who provide telehealth consultations under Side Health branding. Patient scheduling runs on Weave, health records sit in ChARM Tracker, and clinical delivery is supplemented by at-home diagnostic devices mailed to eligible patients. Side Health is in-network with major commercial payers — Blue Shield, Blue Cross, Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, Humana — as well as Medicare and Medicaid, and bills RPM and telehealth services through insurance, making the service effectively free at the point of care for many patients. Out-of-pocket offerings include sublingual immunotherapy (typically not insurance-covered) and subscription-based continuous monitoring.

Commercially, Side Health operates a dual go-to-market: direct-to-consumer acquisition via its website, social channels, and SEO-optimized condition pages, paired with an enterprise channel in which Health Plans, Independent Physician Associations, and large physician groups refer members into Side Health's chronic care programs. The company is HIPAA-compliant and ADA-certified, but is a small organization (11-50 employees, Orinda HQ) with no disclosed funding rounds, revenue, or institutional investors, leaving its capital structure and scale trajectory largely opaque.

Services include monthly virtual wellness checks, condition monitoring, and medication management. Covered by accepted insurance plans including Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurers.
2. Connected Device Program: Remote patient monitoring devices (blood pressure cuffs, glucometers, pulse oximeters, scales) provided to eligible patients. Many devices covered as insurance benefits with no out-of-pocket cost to patients. Devices enable continuous vital sign data collection for the RPM program.

• Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) Program A remote patient monitoring program that uses connected health devices to automatically transmit vital signs (blood pressure, glucose, oxygen, weight) to the care team in real time, paired with monthly virtual wellness checks and proactive alerts when readings spike. It is targeted at patients with chronic conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, heart failure, COPD, asthma, obesity, and sleep apnea.
• Sleep Apnea Testing & Management At-home sleep apnea diagnosis and ongoing management using the FDA-approved WatchPAT peripheral arterial tone (PAT) device mailed to patients, with automated scoring and provider-led treatment plans.

• Sublingual Immunotherapy (SLIT) Allergy Treatment An at-home allergy treatment program that uses customized sublingual immunotherapy drops based on individual blood allergy testing, structured across a build-up phase and a long-term maintenance phase. It serves patients seeking root-cause allergy treatment without traditional allergy shots.

• Connected RPM Devices Connected health monitoring hardware — including blood pressure cuffs, glucometers, pulse oximeters, and weight scales — prescribed by Side Health providers and mailed directly to patient homes.
