For insurers
Better care that costs less. And proves it.
Untreated pediatric GI and nutrition conditions drive avoidable ER visits, specialist churn and years of downstream chronic spend. Fiber Health replaces the reactive pattern with AI-assisted continuous care, delivered by licensed clinicians and billed like any medical practice.
The cost of the status quo
The spend is already happening. Just in the wrong places.
$3.9B
excess annual healthcare burden from childhood constipation
1.3M
ED visits a year for problems that are behavioral and nutritional at the root
1,700
pediatric GI specialists for 20M affected children. Access can’t scale without a new model.

Our stool photo AI reads the photos parents already take, so the care team spots trouble early. Built in-house, and it gets smarter with every child we help.
Outcomes from our clinical research cohort. Adherence benchmark from the published literature (NASPGHAN abstracts). App-metrics study publishes October 2026. AI accuracy from internal validation.
Working with payers
Fee-for-service builds the proof. Value-based care is the destination.
Fiber Health is built to operate like a regular medical practice, with credentialed providers billing standard E&M, nutrition and behavioral codes, while every patient adds to a real-world pediatric GI outcomes dataset.

In-network fee-for-service
Standard claims, standard codes, delivered virtually. Revenue-neutral to administer, familiar to adjudicate.

Value-based contracts
When the data supports it: outcome-tied contracts covering whole populations of members, not one visit at a time.
The inflectionReimbursement precedent: adult virtual specialty clinics (GI, nutrition, women’s health) operate in-network nationwide on this same billing model.
