Lifescan announced it has entered into a partnership with Truepill (view website) in an effort to “expand [Lifescan’s] OneTouch brand offerings beyond diabetes testing supplies to innovative digital wellness offerings for diabetes and related health conditions, including weight loss, fitness, and hypertension.” For context, Truepill was founded in 2016 with the intention of creating the first pharmacy API. Now, the company has expanded to offer other solutions including telehealth services. According to the press release, the companies will launch an eCommerce platform in November 2020 which will be integrated with the OneTouch Reveal mobile app. Below, FENIX provides insight into the new partnership, including thoughts on how COVID-19 may have hastened Lifescan’s strategic move.
