Q: How does JVS Health help with the GUIDE Model?

A: JVS Health provides a dedicated care navigator and clinical team to assess needs, create a personalized care plan, and connect you with local resources and Medicare-covered services.

Q: How does JVS Health work with Medicare?

A: JVS Health is a participating organization in Medicare’s GUIDE Model, designed to improve dementia care. We work directly with Medicare to provide approved services — including caregiver support, comprehensive assessments, care planning, and coordination of in-home and medical services. We handle the billing with Medicare so patients and families can focus on care, not paperwork.

Remote Patient Monitoring

Q: What is Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM)?

A: RPM allows your doctor to track your vital signs and health data from home using devices like blood pressure cuffs or weight scales.

Q: Who is a good candidate for RPM?

A: RPM is ideal for patients with chronic conditions such as high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, or recovering from surgery. It’s fully covered by Medicare if eligible.

Q: How does JVS Health support RPM?

A: We provide the devices, setup, and clinical staff who monitor your data and alert your doctor if anything is abnormal — all from the comfort of your home.
