Nutrition can play an important role in patient recovery after their hospital stay. Our home-delivered meals provide two weeks’ worth of nutritionally balanced meals to aid in recovery.
Approximately 85% of older adults have at least one chronic condition*. These costly conditions are predisposing factors for hospitalization and nursing home placement. Our healthy meal care benefit, gold-standard member engagement, and experienced medical nutrition therapy provide value-based interventions for improved member outcomes – and bottom lines. Additionally, our medically tailored meal benefit can satisfy several HEDIS score categories.
We offer a variety of meals designed by our team of Registered Dietitians that are prescribed for the most chronic conditions.
Significant studies prove the efficacy of food as medicine to help treat, manage and prevent common chronic conditions.
