Sad to see @kinsa shutting down - I always admired the angle they took of aggregating measurements from individuals to open a new window on community public health in real-time Via @ExitsOutcomes

Quite the turn of events: I speculated last week that the mystery buyer of Pear Therapeutics' core assets was its ex-CEO. The purchase agreement reveals this to be true. McCann, under the name Harvest Bio, seems intent on resurrecting Pear using the following assets --> (1/3)

Which health tech-focused (entirely or partially) investors/VCs have worthwhile newsletters, podcasts, or blogs that are more under-the-radar than others?

A few weeks ago when Pear's chief commercial officer departed and its stock dropped below $1 for the first time, I wondered if we'd see a buyer step up soon (Exits & Outcomes Issue 184):

No surprise here: Pear Therapeutics is looking for a buyer. The company isn't going to hold a Q4/FY22 investor call anymore. Pear was the first prescription digital therapeutics company to go public via SPAC.

Breaking news in AliveCor-Apple suits: ITC decided to ban importation of Apple Watch bc it infringes AliveCor patents. But: Because Apple just won a case in the USPTO/PTAB court... this ITC decision won't be enforced until the PTAB case goes through appeals process (1/2)

GoodRx, which acquired HeyDoctor back in 2019 for $14.3M in cash (plus another $7.3M in stock to HD employees), just sold its virtual care tech to partner Wheel for $19.5M cash. Moving forward it's going to use Wheel to power its virtual visits (renamed GoodRx Care in 2021).

Last week I posted the latest report for E&O subscribers. It digs into how Apple worked with the FDA to get its two de novos through the agency back in September 2018. Read on for a couple of details from the report, which is based on 17K pages of FOIA'd emails/docs. 1/9

Accolade announced today that it lost "a large customer" -- not renewing after 2022 -- Comcast. At one time Comcast accounted for 45 percent of its revenue (fiscal year ending in Feb18) and 35 percent (FY ending Feb19). It was 16 percent of rev in FY2021.

1/ I don't buy Pear's claim of "more enterprise SaaS than pharma." Rx DTx will still need individual physician-level detailing, with the associated high SG&A costs. Economics will be similar or worse than pharma business model, w/o the network effects. (text via @ExitsOutcomes)

While Akili’s first prescription digital therapeutic is cleared and on the market the company does not consider it ā€œlaunchedā€ yet. The SPAC announcement reveals an H2 2022 launch frame for the PDT.

The size of the deal is similar to Pear’s SPAC too. Akili expects cash proceeds of $412M and a valuation of up to $1B. Akili will trade on Nasdaq under ā€œAKLIā€.

As part of the deal @chamath will become the chair of Akili’s board, which he did not do after he helped take @CloverHealth public via SPAC.

Surprised to read @AkiliLabs will follow @Pear_Tx and also SPAC. @chamath-owned blank check company will merge with Akili, maker of an FDA-cleared (De Novo) video game-based treatment for ADHD
