A Guide to Digestive Care 
for Health Plans and Employers

Just 38% of patients are satisfied with their current GI care. Most health plans do not cover the recommended treatment pathways that include dietary or psychosocial support. Gastroenterology practices are facing physician shortages, and overwhelming demand from frustrated patients resulting in long wait times for appointments. 

The advent of digital health and virtual care options have the potential to transform digestive healthcare access, experiences, economics and outcomes. 

This guide is designed to help employers and health plans better understand the usually hidden need within their population and how to evaluate digestive health solutions and partnerships to support their employees and members.
