"I still can't believe Hera exists"

My older sister was diagnosed with ALS in February. Our Hero was instrumental in helping us get on Medicaid and then approved for 24 hour care. She’s always available to advocate and knows exactly who to contact to solve a problem. For me, as my sister’s healthcare proxy and caregiver, Hera has been a lifeline giving me information, support, and kindness in making difficult and confusing decisions. Our Hero has played a big part in coordinating care when my sister had to enter hospital in recent months. I would highly recommend Hera who needs help in navigating the health care system. I am eternally grateful for all of Hera’s hard work, commitment, and kindness.

Story by Glyn, Sister

When my mom got sick, navigating the healthcare system was so overwhelming. I turned to Hera, and I'm so grateful I did. From the beginning, my Hero provided clear guidance and helped me understand the best options for care. Hera acted as an advocate—talking to administrators, getting me the best resources, and ensuring nothing fell through the cracks. They were always available to explain medical jargon and next steps, which really helped reduce my stress during such a difficult time to feel empowered and informed. I truly could not have navigated it without their involvement. Hera has made a world of difference for my family and me.

Story by Caryn, Adult Daughter

My dad has pretty high standards and discerning taste and our Hero has been amazing in finding the right care for him. Her expertise and connections have truly been a lifeline for our family. She knows exactly how to navigate the system and uses her network to make everything feel manageable. We would have been totally lost without her steady guidance and support. Thank you Hera.

Story by Lisa, Adult Daughter

Hera has been an absolute godsend. I met our Hero through my mom’s doctor and from day one she has been incredible — responsive, creative, and clearly cares. She has saved us a huge amount of stress and aggravation. Before Hera, dealing with nurses, Medicaid, Medicare was a total mess. Now, when something comes up, our Hero just says, ‘I’ll handle it” and actually does it. She coordinates with everyone, checks in on my mother, and even finds us ways to save money. After years of figuring this out the hard way, I still can’t believe Hera exists. Everybody needs to use Hera.

Trusted by the Doctors you trust

Dr. Frey

Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine

The Hera team has been an invaluable partner. There are so many elements of geriatric care that we simply don't learn how to navigate in medical school. My patients have received thoughtful guidance, exceptional coordination, and a truly comprehensive care plan. They communicate clearly and consistently with me, which has made collaborative care seamless. They truly go the extra mile for patients and families.

Dr. Fessler

Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine

Hera has had a tremendous impact on my most complex patients. Hera care managers are always working their magic and connecting my patients to much-needed community supports. Hera has helped my patients navigate Medicaid, connect with home health aides, set up blister packing for medication adherence, and apply for food stamps. The Heroes proactively communicate with me for seamless, team-based care. The fact that Hera takes Medicare is an absolute game-changer.

Eduardo Sanchez

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Working with Hera has been one of the greatest sources of support for patients that we work with and their families. From the very first phone call, they take the time to understand our patient's medical needs, personal preferences, and daily challenges. Their compassion, professionalism, and attention to detail have helped us immensely with complex discharge planning. I highly recommend partnering with Hera.

Common Questions

What is Hera and how can you help my family?

Hera (hellohera.com) is a care management company that matches families with dedicated Heroes — senior care experts who coordinate everything for your aging parent. 90% of our clients pay $0 out-of-pocket because our services are covered by Original Medicare.

If you've ever spent hours on hold with insurance, struggled to coordinate your parent's doctors, or felt overwhelmed figuring out what Medicare and Medicaid cover — that's exactly what your Hero handles for you.

This is sometimes called 'care management', but really we're just the expert who knows the system and does the work so you don't have to.

How do I know if my parent qualifies?

Your parent qualifies for Hera if they meet three criteria:

  1. They have Original Medicare (not Medicare Advantage)

  2. They live in New York State

  3. They have a chronic condition (like diabetes, heart disease, COPD, dementia, or others)

Not sure if your parent fits? Schedule a complimentary consultation and we'll verify their eligibility at no cost and no commitment. Even if your parent doesn't qualify, we are happy to point you toward other resources that might help.

Call us at 332-203-2533 or fill out our contact form to get started.

How much will this cost me?

90% of Hera clients pay $0 out of pocket.

Our care management services are covered by Original Medicare as part of a program called Chronic Care Management (CCM).

If your parent also has Medicaid or a supplemental plan like AARP/UnitedHealthcare Medigap, that typically covers the standard Part B coinsurance.

During your complimentary consultation, we verify your parent's Medicare coverage and let you know exactly what to expect. There are no hidden fees, no contracts, and no surprise costs.

If your parent has Medicare Advantage (instead of Original Medicare), we unfortunately cannot provide services at this time, but we're working to accept MA plans soon.

Do you serve all five New York City boroughs?

Yes! Hera serves all of New York state, including all five NYC boroughs:

  • Manhattan

  • Brooklyn

  • Queens

  • The Bronx

  • Staten Island

Our NYC-based Heroes are familiar with local hospital systems (like Weill Cornell, NYU Langone, Mount Sinai), community resources, and NYC-specific programs like SCRIE, SNAP, and HEAP.

Beyond NYC, we serve families throughout New York State, from Westchester to Long Island to the Hudson Valley. If your parent lives anywhere in New York, we can help.

How often are we allowed to reach out to our Hero?

There's no limit!

Your Hero is your dedicated expert, available whenever you need support. While Heroes typically work traditional business hours EST, we know things come up at all times, so you can reach out anytime by call or email.

Whether you have a quick question about a medication refill or need help navigating a complex situation like a hospital discharge, your Hero is there for you.

For our families, it's a huge relief to know there's always someone in their corner who understands their parent's full situation.
