New digital primary care options emerge amid rising need for both physical and mental health support

Polito brings decades of government service and healthcare expertise to Firefly Health as the company deepens its roots in Massachusetts.

Health insurance is undergoing a rapid cycle of unbundling and repackaging. Vertically-integrated “payviders” (groups that both pay for services, like an insurer would, and administer those services, like a provider would) are emerging as a new standard, and provider networks are being recontoured as virtual-first care models take root.

Slice of Healthcare, a top healthcare media company, announced today the launch of its first-ever awards list featuring "The Top 35 Digital Health Leaders." This annual list highlights 35 of the most innovative and influential leaders in the digital health industry.

Firefly Health is proud to announce its participation in the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) 2023 Virtual Care Pilot, an initiative that aims to define and elevate the standards of virtual care.

Firefly Health successfully completes SOC 2 Audit to further its commitment to safeguarding patient information.

Community Health Options will soon expand its virtual health services and provide Members access to virtual primary care providers, giving them consistent care when they need it anytime, anywhere. The new service can help make it easier for Members struggling to find a nearby provider who is accepting new patients, whether they need preventative and routine care or help managing more complex issues.

"We wanted to do something that was radically different," says Dr. Andy Ellner one of Firefly’s young leaders. "We wanted to deliver a service that was lower cost, higher quality and provided a better experience to the patient."

The healthcare and benefits experts on the council provide strategic market and audience insights as Firefly expands to serve new partners.
