Brighter AB (Publ) today announces that Nectarine Health has gained proof of concept from its product end user trial with Solutionology Health for Medicare reimbursement in the US.

Following this year’s milestones, which have included the FCC clearance and the FDA registration of Nectarine Health at Home and the start of end user trials with partners in the geriatrics and senior healthcare market, Nectarine Health continues to push into the commercialisation phase.

“Our end user trials have helped us confirm that our technology is fit for purpose as well as having given us valuable feedback on consumer behavior and the consumer experience. More importantly, our trials have helped inform us on our market fit in the U.S. and explore areas we should focus on in the short run. Over the last few months, Nectarine Health has been working on developing a managed care solution with Solutionology Health that is Medicare-reimbursable. Our primary purpose is to make senior care more affordable and accessible. We are happy to announce that Solutionology Health has successfully billed CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) for a select number of users who now enjoy the benefits of our product and their managed care service. This proof of concept is a major step forward in our commercial efforts,” says Matthias Tietze, CEO of Nectarine Health. 

Medicare billing is done by the medical professional, who recommends Nectarine Health at Home as part of their service to the patient. The patient will then in most cases, benefit from a service of which a majority is paid by Medicare. 

Nectarine Health and Solutionology Health, together with their partners, are in the process of agreeing pricing for the initial users. Although the user base will likely remain small for the coming weeks, the company expects to earn its first revenues soon. Further to that, the end user trial with Solutionology Health will continue through Q4 2021, to continue exploring consumer behavior, consumer experience of Nectarine Health at Home and other commercial opportunities.
