Trained caregivers visit patients at home and work under nursing and therapy professionals to create individualized care plans, which may include regular visits, remote monitoring, and coordination with other providers; payment comes from patient fees, insurance reimbursements, and government programs. The company uses a nationwide network to unite in-home services under one platform, emphasizing care in the home to improve outcomes and reduce overall costs. Its goal is to broaden the use of home-based care to enhance patient results while lowering health care expenses.
