“Your services sound amazing, but how will we pay for them?”

‍

A good Geriatric Care Manager earns every cent you pay them. We do that by saving you money in a variety of ways by:

1. Matching appropriate services to assessed needs. (Reduce duplication of services, start with the right plan, no trial and error.)
2. Maximizing the senior’s entitlements, benefits, and other resources.
3. Reducing risks of falls and accidents. (Home safety evaluations, safety equipment, emergency alert units, etc.)
4. Eliminating unnecessary medications and/or treatments.
5. Lowering the risk of financial abuse, senior scams, and other fraud. (We are fresh eyes and ears who are trained in what to look out for.)
6. Slowing the rate of health decline , which means care costs are lower, for longer periods of time.
7. Needing less time to research providers. (We know who does what well, and can present you with tailored choices; no need to choose blindly from dozens of service providers.)
8. Preparing higher quality meals at lower prices (Fresh, healthy home-cooked meals vs fast food and frozen meals.)
9. Reducing emergency trips for long-distance caregivers. (Fewer last-minute trips for emergencies mean that trips to loved ones become well-planned, quality family visits.
10. Reducing caregiver stress, which means less health and financial burdens on family caregivers. (The total impact of lost wages, pension and Social Security benefits average $303,880 for family caregivers over the age of 50, who care for one or more parents. In addition, family caregivers have average of $4,766 a year higher healthcare costs for their own care!
