Hinge Health, a company primarily known for its digital musculoskeletal physical therapy programs, has announced the acquisition of Oshi Health, a virtual-first gastrointestinal care provider. The deal, valued at $105 million, allows Hinge Health to offer a broader range of virtual care services to its employer and health plan clients. By incorporating Oshi Health’s specialized GI care, Hinge Health aims to address the high costs and prevalence of chronic digestive conditions, which often overlap with the musculoskeletal issues the company already treats.

While Hinge Health has established itself as a leader in the digital physical therapy market, this acquisition signals a strategic pivot toward becoming a more comprehensive chronic care platform. The integration will allow patients to access both musculoskeletal and digestive health support through a single digital interface. Industry analysts suggest that this consolidation reflects a broader trend in the digital health sector, where companies are seeking to increase their value proposition to employers by bundling multiple specialty care services. The acquisition is expected to close in the coming months, pending standard regulatory reviews. Neither company has disclosed specific details regarding potential staff restructuring or immediate changes to existing patient care protocols following the merger.
