Match with a Health Care Advocate
Get help from a care advocate, anytime, for anything. Usually $0 with Medicare.









How Advocates Support You
Some examples of what we can do for you:
Care & Navigation
Get support managing your doctors, coordinating services, and making the most of your healthcare benefits so nothing falls through the cracks.
Financial Help
Get support with Medicare, insurance costs, claims, and paperwork so you can focus on your health, not the bills or forms.
Mobility
Get help arranging doctor visits, reliable rides, and access to medical equipment so you can get where you need to go and have what you need at home.
Meds & Chronic Care
Get help managing prescriptions, refills, and ongoing care for chronic conditions so you can stay on track with your health.
Housing & Meals
Get help finding safe, affordable housing, nutritious meals, and home safety support to make daily living easier and more secure.
Support Network
Get help connecting with caregivers, peer support groups, and resources for planning your care and future needs.
Patient Advocacy Without the Call Center
Most patient-advocacy services run on a call-center model: returning patients get whoever picks up, eligibility research lives in stale spreadsheets, and the file closes when tasks finish. Understood Care replaces that model with three commitments.
One Advocate, For Life
Every patient is matched at intake with one dedicated advocate and given that advocate's personal phone number, email, and text. Patients do not go into a call queue. The assignment is permanent: even after we've helped with everything you needed, you keep the same advocate. If you need us again six months later, you'll have the same advocate.
AI-Supported, Human-Delivered
Understood Care is AI-supported. Behind every advocate, AI tools surface programs, benefits, and services tied to where you live, with the most up-to-date eligibility information. The result: patients and advocates get the resources they need faster.
The 7-Day / 30-Day Cadence
Our advocates follow a frequent-communication procedure. While your advocate is actively working on your case, you'll hear from them every 7 days by phone, text, or email with progress information. Once we've helped with everything you needed, we continue to check in every month.
No Hidden Costs
Understood Care is covered by most Medicare plans. See if you’re eligible and get the support of a personal Advocate.
