San Diego, CA - March 3, 2022 - Cue Health Inc. (“Cue”) (Nasdaq: HLTH), a healthcare technology company, today announced that it is further collaborating with the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Children’s Community Pediatrics (“UPMC CCP”), part of UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

With over 55 locations and more than 250 pediatric providers throughout western and central Pennsylvania, UPMC CCP offers standard well and sick care, as well as a variety of specialty services.
