Lin Health is proud to be honored in the
Consumer Wellness – Rising Star category for empowering patients to
reclaim their lives from chronic pain
DENVER, Sept. 10,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Lin Health, a digital platform
helping providers deliver pain psychology treatment for chronic
pain, is thrilled to announce its selection as a Quarterfinalist
for the 2024 Digital Health Hub Foundation: Digital Health Awards
presented at the HLTH Conference. Lin was chosen as a
Quarterfinalist for the Consumer Wellness – Rising Star category,
spotlighting the company's dedication to reclaiming lives from
chronic pain. Out of a pool of more than 1,500 submissions, only
the most promising 16 Quarterfinalists per category/track have
advanced to this stage.
Lin Health CEO and Co-Founder Yehuda Kogan will share an exciting announcement
at the HLTH Conference on Oct. 22,
2024
As a Quarterfinalist, Lin stands out for its commitment to
partnering with health systems, clinics, and payers to extend the
care team through virtual delivery of high-touch and personalized
pain recovery coaching, multidisciplinary clinical support, and
evidence-based self-care resources, supported by an AI-driven
platform purpose-built to holistically treat chronic pain. The
company delivers hands-on support that drives patient engagement
two to three times per week for six months on average with 80% of
patients returning for the second month. This industry-leading
patient adherence results in significant improvement in pain
intensity within three months for 47% of Lin patients.
Lin is also a first-mover in bringing the new clinical and
research understanding of primary pain to the market. This new
medical diagnosis took effect in 2022, recognizing that the nervous
system creates and amplifies pain, causing symptoms as diverse as
migraines, irritable bowel syndrome, and back and joint pain.
"The WHO's inclusion of chronic primary pain in the ICD-11
marked a paradigm shift," said Lin Health CEO and Co-Founder
Yehuda Kogan. "Targeting the nervous
system is highly effective in treating all types of chronic pain,
but this behavioral health-oriented intervention is inaccessible to
most patients and providers because it's very high-touch and not
yet included in standard medical training. Being named a
Quarterfinalist reflects Lin Health's commitment to driving
meaningful change in the healthcare landscape by offering more
patients and providers access to this longitudinal chronic pain
care that is highly scalable and affordable, non-invasive with no
side effects, and – importantly – is human-led to keep the patient
at the center of their care in collaboration with their referring
provider."
The Digital Health Hub Foundation Awards honor outstanding
health technologies and innovations dramatically transforming
healthcare by improving healthcare speed, efficiency, and equity.
The Consumer Wellness category highlights digital health products,
services, and experiences designed to prioritize the overall
well-being of consumers, empower them to take control of their
health, and prevent health problems from occurring and/or
worsening. Finalists will be announced Sept.
20, 2024 and the winners will be announced at the Grand
Finale on Oct. 21, 2024 at the HLTH
Conference in Las Vegas.
"This year has set a new benchmark for excellence, with a
remarkable influx of global submissions showcasing groundbreaking
innovations in digital health," said Chairman of the Digital Health
Hub Foundation Mark Goldstein. "The level of ingenuity and
commitment we've seen is truly inspiring. Congratulations to all of
our Quarterfinalists for their outstanding achievements."
