It takes a village

Last week, two major pharmaceutical companies extended their reach into virtual care access and support. Otsuka Precision Health has teamed up with Amalgam Rx to launch Elevmi, an AI-enabled digital support app for caregivers of those with Alzheimer’s. Biogen announced a new collaboration with Talkiatry to tackle postpartum depression, integrating Talkiatry’s telehealth services with access to their new drug and educational resources—echoing direct-to-consumer moves made by Lilly and Pfizer earlier this year. For new mothers and caregiving populations, these collaborations signal a brighter future where different players work toward more accessible, holistic, and patient-centered care.
