Get a dedicated senior care expert to handle the healthcare system, covered by Medicare.
90% of clients pay $0 out of pocket
A Hera Hero is like having a social worker or nurse in the family who knows your parent, coordinates with their doctors, and handles the hundred things between visits.
Your Hero knows what’s worked for the 1000+ families we’ve served: which agencies return calls and which programs actually help.
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:
They have Original Medicare (not Medicare Advantage)
They live in a state Hera currently serves: New York, New Jersey, California, Florida, Massachusetts, Maryland, or Pennsylvania
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.

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.
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.
How much does a geriatric care manager cost?
Private geriatric care managers typically charge $150–$300 per hour, with initial assessments running $500–$1,500+.
Monthly retainers of $500–$2,000+ are common. Most of this is out of pocket — private geriatric care management is rarely covered by insurance. Through Hera, you get the same coordination from licensed geriatric social workers and nurses, covered by Medicare. 90% of our clients pay $0.
