PARIS and BERLIN, Sept. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Ada Health, the global AI health assessment and care navigation company, has announced a 3-year extension to its partnership with Santéclair, the leading digital health partner to insurers across France promoting access to cost-effective, high-quality care. The renewal ensures continued access to intelligent, automated clinical care navigation for more than 10 million people covered by 60 health plans across France – and reinforces Ada’s position as a leading partner in supporting payers to empower their members to access cost-effective quality care.

The service is available 24/7, allowing rapid healthcare advice and supporting access to the most appropriate, and cost-effective service.

The partnership extension grows the number of services to which Ada’s AI can direct members and healthcare professionals. This includes primary care; specialists such as mental health, women’s health, ophthalmology, and osteopathy; condition-specific treatment options, including specialists for endometriosis, depression, and lower-back pain; preventative services such as smoking cessation, dieticians, sleep therapy, and wellness coaching; and patient education to support self-management.
The extension maintains Ada’s growth throughout the EU, following the certification of its symptom assessment and care navigation technology as a Class IIa medical device under the EU-MDR. Ada is committed to continued partnerships with innovative health systems, insurance providers, and life science companies across Europe.
Nicholas Altebrando, Chief Product Officer said: “We’re seeing growing demand from patients and consumers for safe, reliable digital tools that work with individuals’ insurance plans and allow them to take control of their care journey. That is exactly what our partnership with Santéclair delivers and we’re excited to be expanding our work together as we continue to grow as a business in Europe and globally. We’ve already connected thousands of people covered by Santéclair’s 60 insurance partners to access cost-effective services, based on their plans and care needs, and are looking forward to scaling this further.”
