Problem
Medicare beneficiaries face a complex and often confusing plan-selection process, with more than 60 million people in the U.S. needing to navigate coverage options. Many underserved populations lack access to clear, personalized guidance, leading to poor plan choices and suboptimal health outcomes.
Solution
Saeidan provides technology and resources designed to transform the Medicare plan-selection experience, particularly for underserved beneficiaries. The company's approach combines digital tools that simplify the plan-selection process with a community-based support network that offers personalized navigation and social support. Community Health Workers and Advocates help beneficiaries understand their options, though they do not act as licensed insurance agents or medical providers. The goal is to deliver a member-centric experience that fosters more confident health plan decisions and improves health outcomes for older adults.
Target Audience
Primary customers are Medicare beneficiaries in the U.S. who need help navigating plan selection, as well as health plans and payers seeking to improve member engagement and reduce hospitalizations through community-based support.
