Our Story
Trusty.care has technical capabilities in data analysis, management, and security, as well as compliance and regulation. With over twenty years experience in behavioral change, the Trusty.care team has developed a core expertise in how to use data to drive behavior, develop insights, and in the pragmatic use of artificial intelligence to provide personalized information for our users. By comparing and contrasting large, diverse and specialized data sets, including population-specific sources, we use machine learning to continuously improve and innovate our algorithms.
In the U.S. 10,000 people turn 65 every day. By 2030, the (aging) majority of the US population will need some form of managed care and 80% of seniors and their caregivers will need a broker to help them finalize their care decisions.
Digging deeper into those numbers, we’re seeing that, once again, the devastating effects of structural and individual racism in our society have an outsized, negative, impact on older people of color and their caregivers when it comes to accessing information about their options. Add to that ~3 million LGBT persons aged 55+ in the U.S. (a number that is expected to double in the next two decades)¹ and we see that: "Changing demographics and the racial wealth gap mean seniors seeking long-term care will be more likely to be racial/ethnic/cultural minorities [who] have fewer resources to pay for their care... [as well as] having fewer choices about how and where to receive the long-term care they need."²
Trusty.care realizes that building solutions that work for every single individual aged 65+ who will be needing long-term access to healthcare across the country means recruiting developers, QA managers, and tech sales/support people who come from all communities. We are looking to create a team that understands the existing managed healthcare system and is excited about proactively creating tools for caregivers and suppliers. Most importantly, we are building a team that embraces a diversity of life experience that reflects (and dismantles) the unique roadblocks that stand in the way of our elders getting the resources needed to age with dignity, less stress, and financial resources intact.
