Hero included as part of your covered care
A lot happens between visits.
Between doctor visits, a lot can slip through the cracks — instructions get forgotten, treatment plans go unmanaged. Medicare-covered remote care programs close that gap, with a physician-led care team supporting your treatment on an ongoing basis through a personalized care plan. But that team can only help with what they can see — and without a connected device, your medication routine stays invisible to them. Hero is that device, and enrolling means getting it at reduced or no cost*, as part of your covered care.

Applying is simpler than it sounds.
You may be eligible to enroll in a Medicare approved remote care program that lets a physician-led care team provide oversight of your ongoing treatment using a connected device like Hero. To apply, you complete a short eligibility form and choose a Hero-partnered health provider from a list. The provider reviews your form and schedules a short visit to confirm your fit and walk through any costs, with no commitment at that stage. If approved, and you decide to enroll, Hero ships to you as part of your covered care.
Once you're enrolled, you get:
- An ongoing relationship with a physician who knows your health history
- A dedicated care manager for regular check-ins and coordinating your care
- Medication monitoring that's reviewed with you, not just collected
- Hero's dispenser and app, included as part of your covered care
No cost to check eligibility. No obligation to enroll.
