Ceresti Health is a healthcare technology company focused on improving care for individuals living with dementia. They empower family caregivers through their Digital Caregiver Activation Platform (DCAP), which utilizes data analytics, personalized education, proactive coaching, and remote monitoring. This approach is designed to assist caregivers in managing the care of frail elderly Medicare beneficiaries, particularly those with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias.
The core service includes personalized health education, care navigator coaching from dedicated social workers, and remote monitoring to detect changes in patients’ conditions early. Caregivers receive a dedicated tablet to enhance communication and support. Ceresti’s business model involves a monthly fee per enrolled caregiver/patient dyad, typically covered by Medicare Advantage health plans and other programs, ensuring no cost for caregivers and families.
Ceresti’s program has been validated in clinical studies, demonstrating significant reductions in hospitalizations and medical costs for Medicare Advantage members with dementia. The company primarily targets Medicare Advantage health plans and accountable care organizations, aiming to enhance patient outcomes while generating cost savings for healthcare providers.
