What SIGMA Tactical Wellness does

SIGMA Tactical Wellness is a US-based preventive cardiology company founded in 2016 that delivers advanced cardiometabolic screening and treatment programs specifically designed for first responders — primarily law enforcement officers, and expanding to firefighters, EMS professionals, and 911 dispatchers. The company's clinical protocol combines LP-PLA2 inflammatory biomarker testing, carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) ultrasound, cardiopulmonary exercise stress testing (VO2max), and advanced lipid panels — a combination validated in peer-reviewed research as outperforming Framingham Risk Score and Coronary Artery Calcium scoring for predicting cardiac risk in law enforcement populations. SIGMA operates three core product tiers: HeartStart+ (individual proactive screening with telehealth consultation), On-Site+ (mobile deployment of screening teams to departments with minimum 100-patient events), and SIGMA 360 (a premium full-circle program with 90-day follow-up testing, prescription treatment initiation, and unlimited multidisciplinary specialist telehealth access via the TeleMed2U platform). The company also offers the 4myheart health-coaching program as a complementary offering.

SIGMA generates revenue through professional services fees paid by departments and individual first responders, with no insurance claims filed (HSA/FSA eligible), and increasingly through subscription-style recurring revenue from SIGMA 360. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales led by two regional sales directors covering the East and West US, supported by strategic distribution partnerships with the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), FBI National Academy Associates, and content syndication across Police1, FireRescue1, EMS1, and Corrections1. Since 2016 SIGMA has screened more than 25,000 emergency responders across the United States. The company is a subsidiary of TeleMed2U (acquired in 2024), which provides SOC 2-certified telehealth infrastructure and specialist network access. All programs are HIPAA-compliant and operate outside traditional insurance reimbursement.

Core offering

SIGMA Tactical Wellness delivers proactive cardiovascular screening, diagnosis, and treatment programs specifically designed for law enforcement officers and first responders. Its three core programs—HeartStart+, On-Site+, and Sigma 360—combine advanced biomarker testing (LP-PLA2), carotid ultrasound, cardiopulmonary exercise testing, and telehealth-based specialist care to detect hidden cardiovascular risk earlier than standard medical screenings. Services are delivered either on-site at law enforcement agencies (minimum 100 patients per deployment) or via telehealth, with direct-pay pricing that bypasses insurance.

Product overview

SIGMA Tactical Wellness offers a portfolio of three core cardiovascular screening and treatment programs—HeartStart+, On-Site+, and Sigma 360—designed specifically for first responders and public safety professionals. HeartStart+ provides comprehensive at-home proactive screening with telehealth consultations. On-Site+ brings full-spectrum cardiac and metabolic testing directly to departments. Sigma 360 is the most advanced tier, combining all diagnostic capabilities from both programs with 90-day follow-up testing, prescription treatment initiation, and unlimited access to a multidisciplinary care team including cardiologists, endocrinologists, and nutritionists. Supporting these programs are the 4myheart health coaching program and downloadable nutritional resources.

Broad incumbents

• Forward Health: Membership-based preventive care platform combining advanced body scanning, blood biomarker testing, and continuous health monitoring with a tech-enabled consumer experience. Comparable on the preventive cardiology, advanced biomarker stack, and direct-pay model, but serves a general consumer rather than first-responder niche.
• Hims & Hers Health: Direct-to-consumer telehealth and pharmacy platform spanning primary care, cardiology, and chronic-condition management with a subscription model. Overlaps with SIGMA on telehealth cardiology access and subscription recurring revenue, but serves a general consumer base.
• Doctor On Demand (Included Health): Large telehealth platform offering virtual urgent, behavioral, and chronic-condition care including cardiology access. Overlaps with SIGMA's TeleMed2U-powered virtual consultation layer and chronic disease management pathways, but as a generalist consumer/employer telehealth product.
• Cleveland HeartLab (Quest Diagnostics): Specialty cardiovascular biomarker laboratory (now part of Quest Diagnostics) offering advanced inflammatory and lipid markers including Lp-PLA2. Directly comparable on the biomarker testing technology stack underlying SIGMA's cardiac inflammatory analysis.
• Concentra (Select Medical): Large occupational health and urgent care provider serving employers with on-site workforce health services, biometric screenings, and injury care. Overlaps with SIGMA on employer-sponsored on-site health delivery and workforce cardiovascular risk management, but as part of a much broader portfolio.

Direct peers

• Mobile Health: Mobile occupational health provider delivering on-site screenings, exams, and testing directly to employers and government agencies. Closely matches SIGMA's mobile-deployment, direct-pay, employer/agency sales motion, though with broader health screening beyond cardiology.
• Life Line Screening: National provider of preventive health screenings including cardiovascular and vascular panels delivered via mobile events. Closely comparable business model (mobile, employer/community screening, direct-pay) and category, but serves the general population rather than first responders.
• HealthFair (formerly part of Lifeline): Mobile preventive health screening provider delivering cardiovascular and biometric screenings directly to workplaces and community sites. Comparable mobile, employer-scheduled, direct-pay screening model targeting cardiovascular disease risk.

Others

• TeleMed2U (parent): Parent telehealth platform providing the SOC 2-certified virtual care infrastructure and multidisciplinary specialist network that powers SIGMA's telehealth delivery. Not a competitor but the underlying enabling platform and acquirer (2024).

Emerging players

• Fountain Life: Membership-based preventive health and longevity provider offering advanced cardiac imaging, biomarkers, and full-body diagnostics for proactive disease detection. Overlaps with SIGMA on early-detection cardiology testing and direct-pay, premium positioning.
