Recognition marks FlyteHealth’s delivery on its Diabetes and Obesity category pledge, making its connected, patient-centered cardio-kidney-metabolic care available to Medicare beneficiaries
NEW CANAAN, Conn., July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — FlyteHealth, the leading early cardio-kidney-metabolic (eCKM) care platform for whole health, managing hypertension, hyperlipidemia, prediabetes, kidney disease, obesity, and related chronic conditions, announced it has achieved General Availability within the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Health Technology Ecosystem. FlyteHealth was formally recognized yesterday at the initiative’s one-year anniversary event at the Hubert H. Humphrey Building in Washington, D.C., hosted by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and CMS on behalf of Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz.
Launched at the White House in July 2025, the Health Technology Ecosystem challenged organizations across healthcare and technology to move beyond pledges and deliver working, patient-first solutions. FlyteHealth is among the first companies to reach General Availability — a designation confirming its solution has met CMS’s rigorous patient-facing requirements and is live and available to Medicare beneficiaries — building on its selection for the Diabetes and Obesity category announced in June 2026.
To achieve this milestone, FlyteHealth earned DiMe certification under the CARIN Code of Conduct, implemented IAL2-level identity verification through CMS-approved credential providers, and enabled secure retrieval of health records from CMS-Aligned Networks with no patient portal logins required, while keeping patients in control of exactly what data they share. FlyteHealth’s platform uses this clinical data, alongside its AI-enabled clinical intelligence, to guide members into prevention, treatment, or maintenance pathways and deliver personalized, longitudinal care across the full spectrum of cardio-kidney-metabolic disease.
“Reaching General Availability meant clearing some of the highest bars in digital health — verified identity at the IAL2 level, secure access to health records from CMS-Aligned Networks without a single portal login, and complete patient control over what data is shared. Our team delivered all of it, and the result is an experience where a beneficiary’s actual health records — labs, conditions, and medications — power personalized care from the very first visit,” said Ishraf Ahmad, Chief Product and Technology Officer of FlyteHealth.
