Digital Health Goes-to-Market Through Three Buyer Channels — Strides Manages All Three
Telehealth and digital health companies face a multi-channel go-to-market challenge. Health plan distribution requires reaching VP Product and population health leaders who evaluate digital health programs on outcomes and unit economics. Employer direct distribution requires reaching VP Benefits and CHROs during annual benefits planning. Health system partnerships require reaching VP Population Health and CMIOs evaluating care gap programs.
Each channel has completely different timing, decision criteria, and procurement processes. Health plan sales cycle from first meeting to contract is typically 12–18 months. Employer sales cycles are tied to annual benefits enrollment — Q1 for January starts, Q3 for January starts the following year. Health system partnerships are highly relationship-dependent and can take 2+ years.
Digital health companies using Strides see the most impact in employer direct sales — a channel that is high-volume, timing-dependent, and responsive to autonomous outreach — and in systematic health plan business development, where consistent outreach over a 12-month period produces a pipeline that converts reliably.

Frequently Asked Questions
What signals does Strides monitor for telehealth and digital health outreach?
Annual benefits planning cycle windows, employer workforce expansion, health plan RFP calendar signals, CHRO and VP Benefits appointments, employer health cost escalation signals, health system strategic plan publications, and digital health partnership announcements.
Can Strides reach VP Benefits, health plan executives, and health system leaders?
Yes. Strides identifies VP Benefits, Chief HR Officers, VP Population Health, CMIOs, and health plan product leads with messaging calibrated to each buyer type's specific decision criteria.
Does Strides work for all digital health categories?
Yes — mental health, primary care, chronic condition management, fertility, musculoskeletal, oncology navigation, and other digital health verticals all benefit from systematic outreach to health plans, employers, and health systems.
How does Strides handle the annual employer benefits enrollment cycle?
Strides intensifies outreach during the optimal engagement windows for each employer buyer type: October through January for calendar-year companies (benefits decisions), and Q1 for fiscal-year benefit planning. Off-cycle outreach is deprioritized.
Can Strides help digital health companies expand internationally into new health system markets?
Yes. International health system outreach requires different buyer personas and procurement processes. Strides configures separate campaigns for each national health system market with appropriate messaging and decision-maker targeting.
