co-op.care
For health plans, hospitals & area agencies on aging

The most expensive gap in care is the 30 days after discharge. We close it — and hand you the proof.

A neighbor and a conductor in the home for the weeks after a hospital stay, priced against the readmission you already pay to avoid. Not another dashboard to install — the operator who actually shows up, and the only care-transition partner that returns a verified outcome ledger instead of just an invoice.

The gap

Discharge is the moment the system hands the patient back to a family that was never trained for it — and walks away. The instructions don't get followed, the follow-up gets missed, the warning sign goes unnoticed, and three weeks later an ambulance undoes a $30,000 stay. Every tool built for this gap detects: the fall sensor, the remote-monitor, the risk score. None of them show up at the kitchen table. The missing piece was never more detection. It was a person who answers what now.

That is the one thing willingness-to-pay is built for. Families won't buy "aging support" before a crisis — but at discharge, the need is concrete, the clock is running, and the payer is already on the hook. The transition home is where the money is won or lost, and it is won by presence, not by another alert.

The guarantee

We place a vetted neighbor and a care conductor in the home for the 30 days after discharge: medication reconciliation in plain language, the follow-up actually booked and attended, the home made safe, the warning signs watched by someone who knows the person — and a physician attesting each clinical step. We price that presence against the readmission you already pay to avoid. One prevented readmission funds the whole cohort.

The honest receipt.
A 30-day transition costs a fraction of one readmission.
We don't bill you for activity. We're measured on the metric you already report:
fewer 30-day readmissions · more days kept at home.

Why us, and not a vendor

Everyone else in this market sits in one of three crowded corners: a company that sells a tool, a service that monitors from a distance, or a staffing app that fills the visit with gig labor that churns. We sit in the one corner that's empty — and it's three things at once.

In the home, not on a screen.

An agent can coordinate a plan; it cannot make the bathroom safe or sit with a frightened family at nine at night. The well-funded names you're already hearing from are virtual-first — we are the in-person last mile underneath them.

Owned, not gig.

The caregiver who shows up holds equity in the outcome. That is the retention and change-management layer a 1099 staffing vendor structurally cannot buy — and the reason our visits don't churn the way the companion-care platforms did.

Proven, not self-reported.

Because we run our own care, the outcome ledger comes from ground truth, not a slide. That's the difference between a partner you have to audit and a partner you can trust.

The stack detects. We're the human who answers what now — and the ledger that proves it worked.

Built for whoever already owns the risk — or the patient

Five doors into the same transition layer. Each one already carries the cost or the case — we make the readmission not happen and hand back the evidence.

Medicare Advantage · D-SNP

SSBCI now rewards proven outcomes

Your Stars rating is worth millions in quality-bonus dollars, and the measures that move it — medication adherence, transitions of care, follow-up after hospitalization — all live in the 30 days we own. We close those HEDIS gaps in the home and hand back the quality-grade outcome ledger to prove it. (Best fit for plans that don't already own their own home-health arm.) Plus, we're the care coordinator a D-SNP is already required to staff.

Community hospitals

Readmission penalties meet the CHNA budget

The transition you can't staff for, run by a cooperative that lives in the neighborhood — funded where the readmission penalty and the community-benefit obligation already point. We're the discharge partner, not another EHR module.

Area Agencies on Aging

Your MA contract needs the number you can't yet show

Only ~28% of AAAs can measure the financial value of their own services — which is why MA contracts stall. We deliver the care-transition outcome and the verified ledger that turns your trusted local network into a performance-based revenue line.

PACE programs

Capitation already rewards days at home

Under full risk, every avoided hospitalization is margin and every honored decision is a better outcome. We're the decision-honoring last mile that keeps participants home — without the facility build.

Virtual dementia & brain-health programs

We're the in-home arm your telehealth model is missing

Virtual navigation can diagnose and coordinate; it can't make the home safe or sit with the family at 9pm. We deliver the in-person last mile and the verified-outcome ledger underneath your program — a partner, not a competitor.

Self-insured employers

Your workforce is the second patient

The employee whose parent just left the hospital misses work, burns out, and leaves — the hidden tax on every plan you self-fund. We carry the transition for their family, and the return lands in absenteeism, retention, and claims at once.

The proof layer — the part nobody else returns

Every transition produces a verified record, not a marketing anecdote: who delivered care (identity), that the visit happened (double-confirm or EVV), and that it helped — scored on the Omaha System and mapped to FHIR, with a physician's attestation anchored to evidence a payer or a regulator already trusts. That is the standardized, shareable outcome data this entire market is missing — the thing a hospital's risk model, a plan's quality bureau, and an AAA's funder all need and none can generate. We can, because we're in the home.

Pick the one number you'll be judged on — readmissions avoided or days kept at home — and we build the whole ledger to defend it. A UK peer (Cera) reports up to a 70% reduction in hospitalizations from exactly this model; that's the benchmark we measure ourselves against, in the open.

We don't sell care. We sell what care proves.

The engine behind the guarantee

The same four-step loop that took the UK's Cera to a reported 70% fewer hospitalizations — instrumented in co-op.care from the first family, and visible live on our dashboard.

How a pilot starts

Small and instrumented: one cohort of recently-discharged members in the Front Range, a defined readmission baseline, outcomes-linked pricing, and a shared dashboard from day one. No platform migration, no year-long procurement — a neighbor in a home next week, and a number you can take to your board in ninety days.

co-op.care is pre-scale and Boulder-first. The outcomes above describe the model and its benchmarks, not yet-achieved results — pilots are designed to produce the proof, in the open, with you.
