Modular Medical Announces Pivot Tubeless Insulin Patch Pump Now Commercially Available in the United States


FDA-Cleared Pivot Pump Commercially Available - Modular Medical received 510(k) clearance for the Pivot tubeless insulin patch pump in April 2026 and announced commercial availability in the United States in June 2026, marking the company's formal transition from a development-stage to a commercial-stage medical device company.
Targeting the "Almost-Pumper" Market - Approximately 70% of insulin-dependent adults rely on multiple daily injections rather than pump therapy due to complexity, cumbersomeness, and cost. Modular Medical directly addresses all three barriers with a simplified, removable, and affordable design, targeting a $3 billion addressable opportunity.
Reusable Architecture and Cost Advantage - Unlike competing patch pumps that discard all electronics every three days, the Pivot uses a reusable controller paired with disposable components, creating a significantly more affordable and less wasteful solution. The design supports a recurring consumables revenue stream from existing users.
Founder Pedigree and Industry-Validated Leadership - Paul DiPerna, founder and President, previously founded Tandem Diabetes Care (TNDM) and invented the t:slim insulin pump, which went public at a $450 million IPO in 2013. COO Kevin Schmid held senior operations roles at Insulet Corporation and helped develop the Omnipod system, giving the company deep competitive insight.
Payor Coverage Interest and Scalable Manufacturing - A proprietary payor survey showed that payors representing approximately 50 million covered lives were willing to grant equivalent or preferential coverage for the company's product feature set. Phillips-Medisize, a Molex company, serves as tier-one manufacturing partner with initial capacity supporting approximately 6,000 users and a scalable low-cost framework in place.
