How it fits together

One team, one plan, one phone number.

You don't have to figure out which service you need. Your navigator listens first, then pulls in education, resources, and ongoing check-ins as your situation changes.

Cost & coverage

How much do HōttoCare's services cost?

One of the biggest misconceptions about dementia care is that comprehensive support is expensive.

Thanks to Medicare's GUIDE Program, most HōttoCare services are covered at no cost for eligible participants. When clinical medical visits are needed, they are billed through Medicare just like any other medical appointment.
