CAESAREA, Israel, May 26, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- LabStyle Innovations Corp. (DRIO), developer of the Dario™ Diabetes Management Solution, announced today that in partnership with Israel's leading HMO, Maccabi Healthcare, it has launched  the comprehensive Dario™ Diabetes Management Solution as part of Maccabi's advanced Telecare unit (MOMA). The Dario™ is a proprietary customized diabetes management solution that enables remote treatment for diabetes aiming to improve overall outcomes for patients.  Maccabi has integrated the Dario™ into MOMA, leveraging LabStyle's cutting edge online and mobile healthcare technologies. 

"By providing a digital platform for remote diabetes behavioral programs, tele-medicine and other meta-data analyses, we are advancing the treatment of a disease that impacts an estimated 387 million people around the world," stated Erez Raphael LabStyle Innovations, President and Chief Executive Officer.

"Through agreements like the one with Maccabi, LabStyle benefits from recurring revenue streams from software licensing, which is a strong complement to the sales of our Dario™ device and associated disposables," Raphael added.    

Maccabi's Director of Medical Tele-Centers, Ms. Angela Irony commented, "This is the first program of its kind in Israel and Maccabi is proud to be a leader in implementing and understanding the advantages of remote care for chronic disease like diabetes. The Dario™ is a key part of this platform and has enabled us to extend remote care for the treatment of diabetes."

Through MOMA, Maccabi is now providing chronic diabetes patients a service of advanced multi-disciplinary support and care through a national call center in coordination with the client's primary physician and other community-based resources. Each MOMA member with diabetes is receiving their own Dario™ smart meter for managing and monitoring their diabetes. Caretakers at call centers now have a direct online view and proactive communication over the Dario™ mobile platform.

Maccabi Healthcare subscribed to LabStyle's Dario digital platform, as detailed in the previously announced agreement. This subscription business model represents an additional, high-margin revenue stream for LabStyle, including software licensing and added value services offered to HMOs in territories where the Dario™ has received regulatory approval.
