Gravity Care connects home care, virtual care, and precision care

The need for in-home care is increasing as most elders or seniors plan to stay in their own homes and they may likely need help at some point, a few hours a day or several hours a day - with personal care, transferring, meal preparation, companionship, and transportation. According to insurance company Genworth's 2022 Survey on the cost of long-term care, the national average bill for a home health aide is $63,629 or $5,148 a month. Therefore, reliability, affordability and availability will be a growing issue. And with a 65-plus population projected to grow from 45 million in 2022 to 90 million in 2050, the need for home care will escalate exponentially.

Most home care agencies prefer 100 days of skilled nursing or hospice (with an estimated life span) because Medicare payment is guaranteed, Medicare doesn't cover long-term care if that's the only care the patient needs. Most elders rely on private-pay they scribble together from all available sources, borrowing (home equity or reverse mortgage), investment & personal savings, annuities, life insurance policies for long-term care (like dementia, but exceptions to Alzheimer, and Parkinson's with some pocket expenses) still elders will run out of proceeds. In the non-medical home care agency world, there is a high caregiver churn rate, lower wages, high competition, lower profit margin, shortage of caregiver, understaffing, underspending, undervalued, old practices, longer lead time on patient payments, and growing service operation cost (up to 70%) making in-home care private-pay literally unaffordable to agency and patients.  service operation cost (up to 70%) making in-home care private-pay literally unaffordable to agency and patients.
