Pyx Health, a social health platform, launched a condition management program on Monday that supports conditions including diabetes, hypertension, pregnancy and more.

Tucson, Arizona-based Pyx Health works with health plans to support members struggling with loneliness. Members receive unlimited phone calls for companionship, as well as assistance with resources for physical, social and mental health needs. They also gain access to a mobile app that has an empathetic chatbot, self-guided wellness activities, interactive activities and reminders for medication.

The new condition management program builds on Pyx Health’s existing offerings. Members struggling with long-term or life-changing conditions like diabetes will receive additional screenings, and Pyx Health’s mentors and health coaches will work with the members to gain their trust and understand patients’ barriers to managing their condition. This may include social determinants of health needs like housing, food or healthcare access.
