Redefining Care in Life's Last Chapter

Life is a handful of meaningful events; birth of a child, a glass of wine, the landing of man on the moon.
This should not change even if we are seriously ill.

We are experts in health, decision making and technology, driven by theory and data. We create a no compromise agent for all patients, with the goal of ensuring dignity, support, and clarity for everyone.

1 in 4 Medicare dollars are spent on people during their last 12 months of life, making it the largest medical expense. Sadly, most of it is NOT a result of what people want.

Though needs-based care programs are highly recognized for their effectiveness, uptake and engagement levels are staggeringly low.

The main challenge is identifying the right time for each person to transition to needs-based care, and engaging them in a cost-effective fashion.
