Inc. Magazine Names Senior Whole Health the Number One Fastest-Growing Private Company in US
Date:8/20/2008

offices in MA, CT and NY, offers members many benefits to make life at home even more comfortable. This includes around-the-clock access to their healthcare team, no co-pays or deductibles, prescription coverage, specialized geriatric support services, no claim forms, non-medical services such as transportation, staff fluent in several languages, and non-traditional programs such as Tai Chi fall-prevention.

More than 40 percent of SWH members do not speak English, and 20 percent are illiterate. Most have one or more chronic diseases. The average number of prescriptions is five.

"As the original sponsor of the law that led to the creation of so-called SCO programs, such as Senior Whole Health, I am delighted with the success that this program has achieved," said Senator Richard T. Moore, Chair of the Health Care Financing Committee. "Senior Whole Health helps frail elders stay in their homes by providing the medical and social supports that are critical. They save the taxpayers money and improve the quality of life for the citizens they serve -- the 'gold standard' for any publicly supported program."

According to a 2007 study by JEN Associates, Inc., a national healthcare research firm, SWH's members are 40 percent less likely to be admitted to a nursing home for long-term care.
