Cowen Insights | The New Infrastructure of Caregiving With Wellthy's CEO

Recorded on 11/02/21 When most people talk about healthcare, they tend to speak about it in terms of themselves: How do I as the individual use the healthcare system? How do I interact with my insurance company? How do I use this digital health app? But oftentimes, a lot of care is coordinated not by the individual but by others. In this episode, we’ll talk about caregiving and the challenges families face today in finding the services they need for their loved ones, which have only been further exacerbated by the pandemic, and explore how technology can create a new infrastructure for caregiving. Joining to discuss the topic is Lindsay Jurist-Rosner, CEO and Co-Founder of Wellthy, a company that provides personalized support to help caregivers tackle the logistical and administrative tasks of caring for loved ones.
