Boulder, Colorado  ·  An Open Letter to BCH

Boulder, tell BCH you want this.

We're building the home-care network Boulder Community Health's discharge planners wish they had. Worker-owned. Physician-supervised. Funded through families' own HSA/FSA pre-tax dollars. Already serving Boulder families today.

We're asking BCH to partner — to send their discharges to our network, so aging neighbors don't bounce between the hospital door and nowhere. We're asking you, Boulder, to sign the letter.

Why this matters

The gap between the hospital door and home.

By 2030, more than 15,000 Boulder County residents will be 65+ and facing the demographic wall. Traditional home-care agencies charge families $55 an hour. The caregiver takes home $16. That middleman spread is why 77% of caregivers quit every year.

We're replacing that spread with worker ownership, Josh Emdur DO's 50-state medical oversight, and HSA/FSA pre-tax funding routed through ComfortCard. Families pay less. Caregivers earn more. The hospital avoids the readmission.

This works without BCH. It works better with BCH as the partner that sends us the discharges and gets the ER-avoidance data back.

Real people, this week

The network is already running.

First family

Jess Dion's father

Moved home to Boulder, less than one mile from BCH. Live-in caregiver model. Free room and board in exchange for companion care. First care session delivered. He's still home.

First caregiver model

Housing-for-hours exchange

Instead of a $16/hr agency wage, our caregivers earn $26/hr + equity in the cooperative. Live-in caregivers solve their own housing crisis in exchange for dedicated hours. Deep retention, not agency churn.

Medical oversight

Josh Emdur DO

50-state licensed physician. Handles LMN attestation, incident-to billing, and clinical oversight. The answer to "who's the MD of record" is Josh.

Sign the letter

Add your name to the community ask.

We'll include your name in the printed letter to BCH leadership at 200 signatures. Nothing else — no marketing, no sales calls.

Your name appears in the printed letter delivered at 200 signatures. We never sell your contact information. One optional monthly update email.

Forward this to one Boulder neighbor.

Every name on the letter makes it harder for BCH to say no. Every silence makes it easier.
