Patient engagement & telehealth · Clinician-delivered home rehabilitation software
Blue Marble Health
Blue Marble Health develops Health in Motion, a remote therapeutic monitoring platform that clinicians use to assign home rehabilitation and self-management programs and track patient progress.
Best for
- Clinicians building a home pulmonary rehabilitation or RTM program
- Research teams evaluating digital rehabilitation and self-management
Not ideal for
- Patients seeking a ready-to-enroll national pulmonary rehabilitation clinic
- Organizations without clinical staff to supervise rehabilitation
Bottom line
Blue Marble Health is a conditional choice for clinicians building their own home rehabilitation service. Health in Motion offers program content and monitoring tools, but a buyer still needs the staff, clinical protocols, and reimbursement arrangements to deliver care.
Score breakdown
Weights: Outcomes 35% · Product 30% · Implementation 20% · Pricing clarity 15%.
Blue Marble Health’s buyer is a clinician or organization that wants software for home rehabilitation and remote therapeutic monitoring. Its pulmonary program overlaps with the care need addressed by Kivo Health, but the delivery models differ: Kivo supplies a clinical service, while Blue Marble supplies tools clinicians can use to deliver one.
The relevant cost comparison includes software plus the buyer’s own clinical labor and operating work. Blue Marble should not be presented as a turnkey replacement for a staffed pulmonary rehabilitation program. A clinic comparing those approaches is also deciding who will provide care and follow patients.
- Condition-specific evidence (6.6): Small feasibility studies support usability, with limited evidence of broad clinical impact.
- Home programs and monitoring (7.1): The platform includes home programs and a clinician monitoring portal.
- Clinical delivery requirements (6.2): The buyer needs clinical staff and a delivery model; software alone is insufficient.
- Pricing clarity (5.4): No standard public license or implementation price is supplied.
Health in Motion and Pulmonary Rehabilitation
The platform lets clinicians personalize home programs and review patient-reported progress. Its research page describes an eight-week virtual pulmonary rehabilitation program for people with COPD, evaluated against clinic-based care in a completed non-randomized study with 36 participants.
That is useful feasibility evidence, but a small study does not establish equivalence across all pulmonary rehabilitation settings. The same research page discusses stronger evidence for home rehabilitation in general. Those external studies should not be mistaken for trials of Blue Marble’s own software.

Other Modules and Clinical Responsibilities
Health in Motion also includes fall-prevention and joint-rehabilitation content. Blue Marble’s BREATHE module covers asthma education and self-management, with exercise tracking, questionnaires, an action plan, and a clinician dashboard. These modules address different conditions and should be assessed separately.
In March 2026 Allergy & Asthma Network reported a two-week BREATHE feasibility and usability pilot. The announcement describes good usability and plans for a clinical trial; it does not show that the app improves asthma outcomes. A clinician adopting the platform still needs an assessment process, safe exercise prescriptions, escalation rules, and a way to respond when a patient deteriorates.
LeadIQ estimates Blue Marble Health annual revenue at $1 million to $10 million. Revenue source

Competitor landscape
Blue Marble Health supplies software for clinician-led rehabilitation. Kivo Health supplies staffed virtual pulmonary rehabilitation. They address a related care need, but adopting Blue Marble also requires a clinical delivery team. Kivo is therefore a service-model comparison, not a software replacement plotted here.
