Isaac Health, a virtual memory clinic specializing in brain health and dementia care, announced that customers can now connect with Isaac Health through LillyDirect, Lilly's direct-to-consumer digital health platform.

The Isaac Health platform provides people with memory issues and signs of Alzheimer's disease with the ability to get a clinical evaluation, support and treatment. 

Isaac Health's experts conduct neuropsychological and neurological assessments as well as specialized brain scans when indicated.

"Timely dementia care is at the center of helping our aging population live longer, more independent lives," Dr. Joel Salinas, cofounder and chief medical officer of Isaac Health, told MobiHealthNews.

"Being listed as a provider on LillyDirect expands access to the expert cognitive care Isaac Health provides, shortening wait times to allow us to intervene sooner so treatments are more likely to have the greatest benefit and the least risks possible."

THE LARGER TREND

In August, Isaac Health secured $10.5 million in Series A funding, bringing its total raise to $16.3 million. 

The company used the funds to expand its technology nationwide, including its virtual care infrastructure, innovative care management tools, AI-enabled early detection technology, clinical decision support systems, and data and analytics capabilities.

It also used the funds to extend its partnerships with health plans and systems. 

In April, diet weight loss company Noom partnered with Eli Lilly's LillyDirect pharmacy provider, Gifthealth, to help improve access to FDA-approved Zepbound (tirzepatide) single-dose vials for Noom's members who have an on-label prescription from a doctor

The integration with the LillyDirect pharmacy expanded Noom's approach to weight management by allowing an option for members whose doctors prescribe FDA-approved medications. 

That same month, the hybrid weight-inclusive primary and metabolic care provider, knownwell, announced it would be listed as a care provider on LillyDirect. 

Knownwell will be added to LillyDirect's list of healthcare providers for patients seeking metabolic healthcare.
