- Survey indicates sizable proportion of older adult population copes with healthcare costs by skipping treatments, cutting back on basic and essential needs
- Astiva Health is keenly aware of problems faced by underserved senior population
- The company strives to bridge healthcare gaps through proactive, culturally responsive solutions
As growing numbers of the U.S. population reach age 65, the challenge of adequate healthcare becomes even more critical. In fact, a West Health-Gallup survey reports that some elderly are forgoing needed care because of healthcare costs (https://ibn.fm/pJGqA). Astiva Health, a dynamic and innovative Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (“MAPD”) health plan, is on a mission to meet the challenges faced by underserved aging populations by reshaping the landscape of personalized and comprehensive healthcare.
“The West Health-Gallup survey shows that a sizable proportion of the older adult population copes with healthcare costs by skipping treatments and cutting back on basic and essential needs,” the Gallup report stated. “The avoidance of vital medical care could compound negative health outcomes now and in the future.
“Twelve percent of those 65 and older — which represents approximately 6.5 million people — say they or a member of their household had a health problem in the last year that they did not seek treatment for due to cost,” the article continued. “Eleven percent of Americans in this age group — six million people — report that they or a family member skipped prescribed pills to save money.”
Astiva Health is keenly aware of the problems faced by the underserved senior population and has set out to offer solutions carefully designed to serve specific groups. Currently focused on addressing the healthcare needs of individuals across Southern California, the company serves Medicare enrollees in California, including Orange, San Diego, Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino, offering full medical, drug, and supplemental benefits.
Recognizing the critical need for healthcare solutions designed to meet specific needs, Astiva Health is initially focused on serving the Asian American and Pacific Islander populations, which positions the company in a critical and expanding market segment that offers substantial growth potential. The company recognizes the diverse needs within its served communities and strives to bridge healthcare gaps through proactive and culturally responsive solutions.
Additionally, Astiva Health focuses on supporting its senior members, many of whom are struggling with daily needs due to the rising cost of living while receiving a modest monthly income. Astiva addresses these challenges by maximizing supplemental benefits that are most practical for their members, such as grocery and transportation assistance, vision, hearing, and dental care. The company also provides benefits designed to keep seniors engaged, such as gym and sports club memberships, and out-of-country travel health insurance.
“Astiva Health cares about its members and works to establish lifelong relationships with them by providing a tailored approach to healthcare, offering multilingual solutions for customer service, marketing materials, and educational resources,” the company states. “Health is an essential key to living a good life, and Astiva Health makes it a priority to help members love the life they live.”
That concept is captured in the company’s mission, which is to deliver an unparalleled level of quality care to its members and offer Medicare Advantage plans that provide lower costs and additional benefits beyond original Medicare coverage. In fact, Astiva Health works closely with a variety of partners that offer services such as transportation, vision, dental, hearing, fitness, telehealth, acupuncture, and chiropractic. Astiva’s forward-thinking strategy not only fulfills a critical societal need but also ensures sustainable growth and transformative impact across diverse communities.
Astiva Health is committed to being a leader in the Medicare Advantage space. The company will reach that objective by offering community-based health plans focused on serving individual member needs and tailored comprehensive benefit packages that best support its local, underserved member population.
