HabitNu Brings Behavior Change Infrastructure to Medicare, Supporting CMS ACCESS Model and Medicare App Library

CDC-recognized provider and national Umbrella Hub focused on adherence and sustained outcomes
CHICAGO, IL – April 30, 2026 – HabitNu, a CDC-recognized provider of coach-led lifestyle and behavior change programs and a national Umbrella Hub for the National Diabetes Prevention Program, today announced its alignment with the CMS ACCESS Model and its approval for inclusion in the Medicare App Library.
The CMS ACCESS Model expands access to digital health tools and moves Medicare toward outcome-based reimbursement, where payment is tied to measurable improvements in patient health. The Medicare App Library provides a CMS-reviewed marketplace for applications that meet standards for privacy, usability, and clinical value.
Access alone does not improve outcomes. What people do each day does.
HabitNu is built for that.
The platform helps members turn clinical guidance into simple, daily actions through structured programs and ongoing support from trained coaches. This makes it easier to stay engaged and follow through over time.
Members can securely connect their health information, including labs, medications, and diagnoses. That information is translated into clear next steps and reinforced through coaching. HabitNu also integrates with devices such as digital scales, activity trackers, blood pressure monitors, and CGMs to support ongoing tracking.
Disengagement does not happen all at once. It builds over time.
HabitNu continuously monitors engagement and behavior patterns to identify early signs of risk. Coaches step in with timely outreach and guidance to help members stay on track and avoid drop-off.
“ACCESS expands access to tools, but outcomes depend on adherence. HabitNu provides the infrastructure that drives that adherence. Through continuous monitoring and timely coach-led intervention, we help members stay engaged and follow through,” said Sindhu Rajan, CEO of HabitNu.
HabitNu meets key requirements of the CMS digital health ecosystem, including consumer-directed data access, interoperability, and data security. The platform aligns with CARIN Alliance standards and is accredited through DirectTrust. HabitNu also supports integration with patient-directed data platforms such as Fasten Health.
For healthcare organizations, ACCESS signals a shift. Payment is tied to outcomes, not activity.
HabitNu supports this shift with infrastructure that drives enrollment, engagement, and sustained participation, including:
- Converting eligible populations into active participants
- Delivering structured, CDC-based programs
- Sustaining adherence through coach-led engagement
- Continuously monitoring and intervening to prevent drop-off
- Tracking performance aligned with outcome-based reimbursement
