Empowering Endocrinologists to Shape the Future of Diabetes Care Valendo Health

There is not enough capacity in today’s endocrinology community to meet the growing needs of the diabetes population. In 2022 there were 12 million+ Medicare beneficiaries with diabetes, but less than 1,000,000 of them saw an endocrinologist; the median time to the next appointment is 3+ months; and retirements outpace new fellows. This is a huge and underappreciated problem. Our analysis shows that when people with diabetes are consistently cared for by an endocrinologist they do better, which means healthier lives, fewer ER visits and hospitalizations, and $3,500 less healthcare spending annually. This dynamic is a breakdown in the supply and demand rules of economics - endocrinologists create significant human financial value, there is growing demand for their services, but supply is shrinking. This market is broken because we pay endocrinologists wrong - despite delivering great care and creating significant value, endocrinologists are among the lowest paid specialists in the US. Valendo Health was created to improve the economics of endocrinology practices and increase access to the best care for people with diabetes. Our goal is to create value-based specialty care arrangements that better align incentives and reward endocrinologists for improving care and reducing costs for the diabetes population. • https://www.valendohealth.com/
