Former 23andMe President Andy Page will join Livongo Health, a digital health company focused on chronic disease, as its president and chief financial officer.

Page will lead financial and operational functions and strategic growth initiatives, Livongo said in a statement.

"With over 25 years of leadership experience, Andy has worked with some of the most innovative consumer-facing companies leveraging the power of technology. His experience scaling data science driven technology companies will be a valuable addition to an already exceptionally strong management team," Livongo CEO Glen Tullman said in a statement. "Andy's operational experience will also be helpful in managing our accelerating growth and balancing that with our expansion into new products and markets."

Livongo’s diabetes management program is built around a blood glucose meter, a device that the majority of diabetics use to manage their disease, says Amar Kendale, the company’s senior vice president of product. The connected meter, which comes with unlimited blood glucose test strips, automatically uploads glucose readings to a cloud-based platform.

Patients may view their glucose data online or through a mobile app. The system provides advice based on glucose readings in real time and allows users to share their data with their physician’s office and/or loved ones. Patients also have access to diabetes coaches who are on hand 24 hours a day to answer questions. The company raised $52.5 million in series D funding in March.

In February, Livongo teamed up with Voluntis to offer the latter’s insulin dose recommendation device, Insulia, as part of its diabetes management program. Physicians base a treatment plan on the patient’s profile, insulin prescription and blood glucose targets. Through an app or web portal, Insulia then provides dose recommendations to patients based on this information and their blood glucose data.
