Enhanced Goals of Care management and holistic support for your members

For health systems and health plans, the Goals of Care landscape is evolving towards value-based care, and the challenges that families and members face in coordinating care, adhering to a care and advance planning, accessing necessary care infrastructure, and advocating for wishes needs has never been more challenging across our fragmented healthcare system.

The end-of-life care crisis has a profound impact on members and their experience


For Goals of Care that happen inside or outside of the doctor’s office, Thanacare helps health systems, health plans, and those in value-based care arrangements elevate their Goals of Care strategies to meet the complex and modern needs of today's families. We leverage technology and human expertise to ensure members and families get the right care at the right time while uploading documented wishes and desires, and work alongside health systems and health plans to enhance Goals of Care management and improve the member experience.

Member experience

Medicare data reports that only about 2.8 percent of seniors end up having these discussions with their doctor.

Thanacare works with primary care providers, care recipients and caregivers to ensure a more seamless member experience and alignment around Goals of Care, improving health plan ratings.

Shifting demographics and fragmentation

Nearly 11,000 people are turning 65 years old every day — and every one will require and deserve an established Goals of Care plan so that they have a enhanced end-of-life experience.

Thanacare has decades of experience helping families navigate eldercare and long-term services and support (LTSS).

Lack of coordination

The average time a primary care provider spends discussing Goals of Care with their patient on average for ~15 minutes, this time constraint adds complexity to a member’s care journey.

Thanacare serves as the connector, helping keep care recipients, their families, and their primary care provider and health plan informed and on the same page regarding Goals of Care conversation and documentation.

High intensity and high burden

For both families and providers, there is not enough time or skill per week to have these conversations, even though we know established Goals of Care can help improve patient health outcomes and lower unnecessary care utilization.

Thanacare works to alleviate the stress, intensity, and anxiety of caregiving so that families can focus on love over healthcare logistics and Goals of Care wishes for a more graceful death.

Planning ahead

Too often it is easier to say "yes" to additional treatment, rather than "no, let's not do anything more" when it may mean preserving quality of life. Planning and thoughtfully discussing and documenting wishes will make the end-of-life process better, softer, more peaceful, and less stressful for patients and their loved ones.

Thanacare helps achieve Quintuple Aim goals by giving healthcare professionals and patients the tools to leverage ACP to have a better user experience. This improved control over end-of-life medical decisions results in reduced stress and more confidence for all stakeholders.
