Tactile Systems Technology, Inc. (doing business as "Tactile Medical" since September 2013) is a medical technology company that develops and provides medical devices for the treatment of underserved chronic diseases. The company was originally incorporated in Minnesota on January 30, 1995, and reincorporated as a Delaware corporation on July 21, 2006. Tactile Medical focuses on advancing at-home care for chronic conditions, aiming to improve patient outcomes, quality of life, and control healthcare expenditures. Their therapeutic focus areas include: (1) vascular disease, specifically treating lymphedema and chronic venous insufficiency; (2) oncology, addressing lymphedema as a common consequence for cancer survivors; and (3) providing airway clearance therapy for individuals with chronic respiratory conditions.

This model facilitates direct engagement with both patients and clinicians, allowing the company to provide clinical evidence and education.
