Supporting a Growing Industry: Home Health

It’s no secret that the home health industry is growing. While our aging population plays a significant role, seniors are also choosing more and more to remain at home for longer.

According to Home Care Daily, the industry is expected to hit $130 billion in revenue this year. Unfortunately the demand may also drive up costs for patients. “In 2016, a 65-year old man would need $72,000 in savings and a 65-year old woman would need $93,000 if each had a goal of having a 50% chance of having enough savings to cover health-care expenses in retirement,” according to the Employee Benefit Research Institute. For providers trying to support the growing demand for home care services, balancing costs can be very challenging.

We recently teamed up with Interim HealthCare, a company that offers home care, hospice, and healthcare staffing services through their network of 300+ independently operated franchise locations across the country. Interim provides 25 million hours of home care service to almost 200,000 people per year, no small feat. At TigerText, we understand how critical the success of a team like Interim’s is to the nation’s health, and we want to do our part to ensure that the highest quality care and service are provided with every patient encounter.
