Hero’s membership service provides you with the tools and support you need to help ensure the right medications are taken at the right time, every time.
With the Everyday Hero membership you get unlimited access to:
To see more details about the Hero Everyday membership as well as other membership options please visit our Memberships page.
The Hero service includes the Hero device, the Hero app, and 24/7 support.
The Hero device is an incredibly complicated piece of hardware that needs to work every time to ensure the health of our users (as well as comply with both FDA and HIPAA regulations). Similar devices that are on a membership model like Philips ($60 a month) and MedMinder ($50 a month) are significantly more expensive and provide fewer features. Other options that are available to buy outright, like Livi ($979) and Medacube ($1299) are very expensive to purchase. None of these devices include an app that allows users to interface with the Hero either as the primary user or remotely as a caregiver.
The membership model allows us to offer Hero to as many users as possible at an affordable price while also receiving constant updates to both the app and the firmware that controls the Hero device. Your membership also includes our limited warranty for the duration of your Hero membership.
In addition, members have access to our live support 24/7 if they have any questions or need help.
Multiple caregivers can be connected to the same Hero device but Hero is designed to dispense pills to a single user. If multiple people in your household need to use Hero, they will need to buy a device for each individual user.
Unfortunately, Hero is not currently contracted to be reimbursed through your health insurance. We recommend reaching out to your health insurance provider to see if reimbursement options are available, as policies vary from plan to plan. You can also get more information about getting reimbursed here.
Hero can dispense whole pills of any shape, size, or texture. Hero cannot, however, dispense half pills, injectables, liquids, or soft gummies, like chewy children’s vitamins. You can still store these types of medications outside of Hero, and use the Hero app to track your schedules, with the full support of Hero’s notifications and reminders.
Unfortunately, Hero devices currently hold a maximum of 10 pills. You can buy 2 devices in order to dispense more than 10 different pills daily.
The Hero membership costs $29.99 a month, with an additional $99.99 initiation fee. Your membership includes the Hero automatic pill dispenser, the Hero mobile app (Android & iPhone), and 24/7 phone, email and online chat support.
