Teva’s Digital Health Collaboration with Rimidi Expands to Include Respiratory Monitoring Program Integration with a Large U.S. Health System
Teva Pharmaceuticals, a U.S. affiliate of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NYSE and TASE: TEVA), today announced that a respiratory patient monitoring program using data from Teva’s Digihaler System has been implemented within California’s Desert Oasis Healthcare (DOHC) system. The program was designed in collaboration with Rimidi, a leading clinical management platform designed to optimize clinical workflows, enhance patient experiences and achieve quality objectives. Teva’s Digihaler is the first and only smart inhaler system that can provide objective data to help patients and their doctors better support asthma management.
The implementation of this respiratory monitoring program in a large health system is a vital step in helping to ensure patients are getting the resources they need to develop informed treatment plans with their doctors. Teva and Rimidi continue to look for ways to expand this respiratory monitoring program by partnering with additional health systems in an effort to reduce high costs, lower hospitalizations and improve asthma management.
“Teva aims to be a leader in fusing technology and healthcare in order to help patients and their doctors more easily manage their treatment plans. Through collaborations with partners like Rimidi, we hope to improve the patient continuum of care, leading to a more cost-effective healthcare system,” said Manny Montalvo, Senior Vice President, Head of Digital Health & Innovation at Teva. “More than 34 million Americans live with a chronic lung disease, and approximately 25 million people in the U.S. currently have asthma.1 We’re energized by the potential of collaborations like this to drive meaningful differences in how asthma is managed and treated, with the collective vision of one day predicting asthma attacks before they occur.”

Through this collaboration, DOHC has identified patients with respiratory conditions indicated for treatment with one or more of the products in Teva’s Digihaler family of inhalers, and who are appropriate candidates for enrollment via the Rimidi platform. Data from Teva’s Digihaler System will be available through Rimidi’s Respiratory Module, which is designed to give providers a more complete view of the patient to help guide treatment decisions for those with respiratory diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma.
