About 5% of Americans, many with complex chronic conditions, account for 50% of our country’s $3.8 trillion medical spending. Despite having access to solutions, these individuals’ health and quality of life continue to decline. And healthcare costs continue to skyrocket.
Despite the advances in therapeutics, medical devices, and digital solutions for chronic diseases, the last mile for curbing disease progression and cost is the individual’s behavior change. ZealCare is creating a new paradigm shift in chronic disease care.
Change is hard. It’s not as simple as knowing what to do – many factors, including social drivers and access to resources, make it difficult for patients to follow a therapeutic plan.
Our combination of support empowers individuals to be active participants in their health
Our next-gen approach combines 20 years of evidence-based care models developed and validated by the Duke Center for Personalized Health Care. We have adapted and enhanced these models to provide a new paradigm for managing complex chronic diseases. It incorporates physical, mental, and emotional health based on the patient’s values, needs, and goals for sustained behavior change.
