In July 2026, Cardinal Health announced definitive agreements to acquire AdaptHealth’s Diabetes Health business for $235 million in cash and the medical‑supply firm Strive Medical in a separate transaction, together valued at roughly $360 million. The deals were presented as a way to grow the company’s at‑Home Solutions platform and broaden its reach in diabetes management and urology care.

A later report confirmed the sale of the Diabetes Health unit to Cardinal Health, noting that the transaction was subject to antitrust review and aligned with AdaptHealth’s plan to focus on sleep and respiratory care, reduce debt, and improve financial flexibility. The acquisition reinforced Cardinal Health’s strategy to expand technology‑enabled home health services across the United States.
