Creating an End-to-End Solution for Women’s Health
The integration of Iron Health’s services with Metronomic’s Materno™ pregnancy management platform will create a comprehensive solution that addresses the needs of women across both the obstetrics (OB) and gynecology (GYN) segments. This integrated approach will provide a seamless experience for patients and enhance care coordination between providers. Materno™ enables OBGYN clinics to seamlessly integrate remote monitoring and care management services, extending the reach and impact of clinic-based care.

- Primary care: Addressing general health needs and preventive care.
