E-Z Health helps seniors find relief with dedicated healthcare phone guides

A new way to help seniors navigate the health care system, not with AI, but real humans lending a helping hand. Annalisa Pardo has the story. Aging has come with challenges for 77-year-old Carol Colborne. She's the caretaker of her husband with Alzheimer's and was diagnosed with cancer herself just last year. I thought we were going to go to an assisted living facility when I was diagnosed with cancer last year and because how could i take care of him even with cancer and all my treatments he can't drive anymore and i can't drive that's when she discovered Easy Health a company that pairs seniors with a personal guide to navigate the complex health care maze we give you a dedicated one-on-one guide that you speak to on the phone and that guide is going to be taking care of everything for you. This is zip code by zip code. What's the best care? What is the application to be filled out? Helping seniors figure out everything from transportation to meal delivery to which doctor to see. It is a game changer. My gosh, they helped me in a few months. They helped me in four ways. Through Easy Health, Carol and her husband have been able to get improvements to their home and register in a transportation program, saving them hundreds of dollars in rideshare costs. It just liberated us. We're no longer prisoners of our own home. Covered by Medicare, Easy Health aims to bring efficiency to getting care, closing the technology gap of seniors in today's healthcare system. So a lot of them honestly give up, either give up or get suboptimal care. Both of those lead people to not get good care, not be able to age independently and in their own home. The community has all the resources we need. Somebody just has to bridge the gap. To ensure these years are truly golden for our seniors. Wow is the right word. It changed our whole life.
