Enroll Hero
Enroll Hero helps seniors find the optimal Medicare plan in seconds with a data-driven personalized recommendation platform.
|
Our vision is to empower a smarter retirement. Our machine-learning based platform helps optimize senior healthcare spend in two ways. First, we take user data to recommend the optimal Medicare health plan, across Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement, and Prescription Drug plans. Second, unlike traditional insurance brokers, our platform engages and monitors the user's Medicare account to ensure they are always on the right plan and paying the right amount every month. Think of it like credit monitoring for Medicare.
A recent Kaiser Family Foundation report showed that 80% of people overpay for their Medicare drugs by over $700 a year. For a population where half make less than $24,000 a year, our goal is to save each person on Medicare over a thousand dollars.

What Problem Are They Solving?
If you are one of the 4 million people that turn 65 every year, you are required to sign up for a Medicare plan, even if you’re still working. And if you’re one of the 55 million people already on Medicare, you have to think about changing your plan every single year.
The problems are:
1. Picking the right plan is overwhelming.
2. There are hundreds of plans to choose from.
3. There are no good resources to help with this choice.
And the stakes are very high. Making the wrong choice can cost hundreds of extra dollars per month. Or worse, if you choose the wrong plan and get sick, you may not be fully covered.
We help seniors pick the optimal plan and enroll in minutes.

What's Innovative About Their Solution?
We are different in that:
- We use machine learning in our decision engine to produce unbiased plan recommendations that improve with each recommendation.
- We calculate a "Total Cost" that includes co-pays and co-insurance rather than just monthly premiums to match the right plan to the individual.
- Our platform engages clients with monthly reports of potential savings and personalized offers. Traditional brokers "disappear" after the enrollment, but we engage with them with our software-based approach that scales
