Nymbl Science, a digital health provider and leader in scalable
fall prevention and bladder training for aging adults, announced
today Bob Mirsky, MD, MMM, FAAFP, has joined the company as its new
Chief Medical Officer. Dr. Mirsky is a seasoned physician executive
with extensive health plan experience across Medicare, Medicaid and
commercial lines of business.
“Dr. Mirsky has a deep expertise in Medicare Advantage and older
adult populations — and we are thrilled to welcome him to our
team,” said Edward Likovich, Ph.D., and Chief Executive Officer of
Nymbl Science. “This is an exciting time for our company and with
Dr. Mirsky, we are positioned to grow our reach and, ultimately,
improve outcomes for even more people.”
Nymbl creates technology to remove the physical and emotional
barriers that often come along with aging, including falling and
bladder control. The company offers easy-to-use, clinically-proven
digital tools and resources — generally available through health
plans — that empower adults to continue doing the activities they
enjoy as they age.
“To improve quality of life and health outcomes for aging
populations, we must provide them with the right tools to address
their medical and psychosocial needs,” said Dr. Mirsky. “Nymbl is
at the forefront of this technology — and I look forward to working
together to help people navigate aging more confidently.”
Dr. Mirsky has dedicated his career to helping older adults age
by addressing the medical, emotional, and social determinants of
health focusing on mitigating isolation and loneliness through
face-to-face and virtual engagement. In his role with Nymbl, he
will help measure the efficacy of Nymbl’s fall prevention program,
interpret insights from older adults using Nymbl and serve as a
liaison with health plan partners.
Dr. Mirsky previously served as Chief Medical Officer and Vice
President of Medical Operations for Aetna Medicare. He has also
held leadership roles for North Shore-LIJ CareConnect Insurance
Company, the Mid-Atlantic Region of Coventry Health Care, Gateway
Health Plan in Pittsburgh, FloridaBlue, and Tenet Health System
Florida. Dr. Mirsky practiced family medicine for 10 years in New
York and Florida and completed his residency and chief residency at
