CareRing Health is a national healthcare company dedicated to improving the quality of life for underserved patients who are chronically-ill, aged, or disabled and wish to remain in their homes. CareRing Health’s innovative healthcare-at-home service delivery model reduces inefficient federal and state healthcare spending consisting of a ring of healthcare comprised of medical experts who coordinate care under Medicaid and Medicare and includes PrimaryCare@home, SkilledCare@home, PersonalCare@home and HospiceCare@home services. CareRing Health currently provides care for more than 5,500 patients in 20+ markets throughout Pennsylvania, Delaware, Ohio, Maryland, Washington, DC and Virginia and employs more than 5,700 caregivers and support staff.
CareRing Health was conceptualized over ten years ago by CEO and Founder Steve Guenthner, then President of Almost Family, a national home healthcare services provider. The Company was founded to address the unique challenges faced by America’s dually eligible population—those with both Medicare and Medicaid benefits—who often struggle with chronic illnesses and navigate a fragmented healthcare system. These individuals face numerous barriers, including difficulty in managing medical, social, and behavioral conditions, leading to high healthcare costs and poor management of chronic conditions.
