LogicMark Secures Approval to Provide Essential Safety Devices Through Medicaid Waiver Programs to Seniors in Key States
2025年1月14日 - 11:00PM
LogicMark, Inc. (Nasdaq: LGMK), a provider of personal emergency
response systems (PERS), health communications devices, and
technology for the growing personal care and safety economy, today
announced expanding access to its safety devices through the
Medicaid Waiver system in Colorado, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Nevada,
and South Dakota. This new government integration will enable
eligible individuals to receive full or partial reimbursement for
monthly monitoring fees when leasing LogicMark’s medical alert
devices.
Eligible seniors can now access LogicMark’s
renowned safety devices without incurring significant out-of-pocket
costs. This initiative will help mitigate the financial barriers
many fixed-income individuals face in accessing essential safety
devices. The reimbursement amount, eligibility, and processes will
vary by state and cover LogicMark’s Freedom Alert Mini and the
Freedom Alert Max devices. This expansion into the Medicaid Waiver
Program will also support caregivers by giving them better peace of
mind in ensuring the safety of their aging loved ones.
“We are thrilled to announce this integration
with Medicaid as our aging populations deserve the utmost care
without sacrificing new technologies & innovations because of
cost,” said Chia-Lin Simmons, President and CEO of LogicMark. “This
expansion strengthens our ability to empower seniors to live
independently and safely in their homes, ultimately enhancing their
quality of life and helping ease the mountain of responsibilities
caregivers face in protecting their loved ones. Expanding the
access to LogicMark products via the Medicaid waiver program
throughout the U.S. is a major initiative for 2025, with a focused
team dedicated to working closely with state and federal
governments to get seniors the care they need.”
The Medicaid Waiver program provides long-term
care for individuals who prefer support at home rather than in
institutions. These waivers enable states to adjust some Medicaid
rules and offer various medical and non-medical services and
options to help individuals transition from institutions to their
homes and communities.
Medicaid enrollees must first verify their
eligibility and obtain medical justification to apply for medical
alert device reimbursement. Then they can submit a Prior Approval
Application, often facilitated by their caseworker. By working
closely with their caseworker, applicants can streamline the
process and ensure quicker, more efficient approvals. Specific
application procedures may vary by state, so enrollees should
contact their local Medicaid office for detailed information on
medical alert coverage and reimbursement in their area.
LogicMark most recently launched its most
advanced medical alert device, the Freedom Alert Max, one of the
two devices included in this program. It provides regular
over-the-air updates, new features, and improvements, such as
medication reminders, geofencing, and fall detection. An on-the-go
device ready to use out of the box, the Freedom Alert Max provides
24/7 monitoring, meaning that help is always available to dispatch
emergency services or alert caregivers that their assistance is
needed. The other on-the-go device in this program,
the Freedom Alert Mini, allows seniors to communicate directly
with emergency services and includes patented fall detection
technology, geofencing, and more.
