Midi Health, a leading virtual care clinic specializing in perimenopause and menopause, has announced an exclusive partnership with Mount Sinai Health System, a prestigious healthcare network in New York City, to expand access to expert menopause care for women across the metro area.
This collaboration aims to address the significant gap in healthcare for women experiencing midlife hormonal changes. Despite the life-altering symptoms associated with menopause, fewer than one in four women who seek medical care receive the advice and treatment they need. Midi Health’s virtual clinic is set to bridge this gap by providing specialized, personalized care protocols developed by experts in women’s midlife health.
Through this partnership, patients of Mount Sinai-affiliated practices and employee health centers will have seamless access to Midi Health’s virtual services. This integration will help ensure that women receive consistent and expert care throughout their menopause journey, whether directly or via their workplace benefits programs.
Dr. Charles Ascher-Walsh, MD, System Senior Vice Chair of Gynecology in the Raquel and Jaime Gilinski Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Science at Mount Sinai, emphasized the importance of this partnership: “Providing specialized care tailored to the unique needs of a woman in midlife is crucial for helping them feel their best before, during, and after menopause.”
Lauren Lisher, Senior Vice President of Mount Sinai Solutions, echoed this sentiment, stating, “All women deserve access to quality and holistic health care, and Mount Sinai provides the full spectrum of evidence-based care that is personalized and patient-centric. The collaboration with Midi grows that commitment to care for women at all ages and through her entire life-cycle. The number of related health conditions that arise during perimenopause and menopause requires multi-specialty, integrated care complemented with strong navigation services that meet the needs of women. We are honored to partner with Midi to support women in their healthcare journey as well as throughout their lives.”
A unique aspect of this partnership is its dual focus on serving both patients and their employers. Both Midi Health and Mount Sinai have established direct-to-employer healthcare services, which they will now offer collaboratively to enhance the care provided to women in the workplace.
Midi Health’s CEO and co-founder, Joanna Strober, stated: “We are excited to work with Mount Sinai to address the unmet needs of millions of women who experience symptoms of perimenopause and menopause, with a program that gives them access to the care they deserve, at a crucial stage in their lives.”
