Insights

Sanara's wound care pilot program marks strategic advancement in their value-based care technology platform, offering modest future growth potential.

Sanara MedTech's subsidiary Tissue Health Plus (THP) has launched a pilot program with a wound care provider group that delivers at-home care across six states. This represents the company's first real-world implementation of their technology platform, which they're positioning as a "Wound Care Operating System."

The technology has two key components worth noting: the Co-Pilot software that standardizes patient encounters and treatment interventions while ensuring reimbursement compliance, and a two-way EMR integration capability that streamlines administrative processes. These features address meaningful pain points in wound care delivery - treatment standardization and documentation burden.

This pilot serves primarily as a validation mechanism rather than a revenue driver. Management's stated goals center on gathering real-world evidence to optimize their platform before wider deployment. The company is simultaneously pursuing two critical next steps: launching a payer-focused pilot in the second half of 2025 and securing financial partners to fund broader THP implementation.

While this development shows execution against their stated THP strategy, investors should recognize this as an early-stage validation effort. The announcement contains no financial metrics or projections regarding potential revenue impact. The company's decision to highlight this relatively modest operational milestone suggests measured progress rather than transformative near-term growth in their technology division.

Pilot program designed to provide real-world evidence in the use of Tissue Health Plus’ technology platform

FORT WORTH, TX, July 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sanara MedTech Inc. (“Sanara,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) (Nasdaq: SMTI), a medical technology company focused on developing and commercializing transformative technologies to improve clinical outcomes and reduce healthcare expenditures in the surgical, chronic wound and skin markets, today announced the recent launch, through its subsidiary, Tissue Health Plus, LLC (“THP”), of its wound care provider pilot program, a first of its kind, value-based wound care offering designed for payers and risk-bearing entities, as well as value-based primary care companies.

“We are pleased to announce that, during the second quarter, THP launched a pilot program in partnership with a wound care provider group delivering at-home care for chronic wounds across six states,” said Sam Muppalla, President and CEO of THP. “Through this initiative, the THP technology platform will serve as the provider group’s Wound Care Operating System. The group’s practitioners are leveraging THP’s Co-Pilot software offering to standardize patient encounter planning and treatment interventions, while ensuring compliance with reimbursement requirements. Additionally, the practitioners are utilizing the platform’s two-way integration with the group’s electronic medical record to streamline post-encounter administrative processes.”

Mr. Muppalla continued: “With respect to our goals for the pilot program, we believe the real-world experience gained through these patient encounters will enable us to further validate and optimize our THP technology platform. The wound care provider group has commenced the first patient encounters as part of this pilot program, and we look forward to expanding its use within the group to include additional practitioners and locations.”

“The initiation of our wound care provider pilot program represents an important milestone in our THP strategy, and we look forward to leveraging the data and feedback obtained through the real-world use of our THP technology platform to support its successful implementation,” stated Ron Nixon, Sanara's Executive Chairman and CEO. “In addition to this initiative, we remain acutely focused on engaging with payers – with the goal of launching a THP pilot program with a payer during the second half of this year – as well as with potential financial partners to invest in the execution of our THP strategy.”

Mr. Nixon continued: “We are pleased with THP’s performance and progress, and we look forward to sharing a full company update on our earnings call, which we intend to hold on August 13, 2025.”
