CareScout Expands Nationwide with Nurse-Led Care Plans and Credentialed Provider Network
Event summary
- CareScout, a subsidiary of Genworth Financial, has expanded its service offerings nationwide with two new tools: personalized Care Plans created by licensed nurses and access to the CareScout Quality Network of credentialed home care providers.
- The Care Plans involve a 45-60 minute evaluation (in-person or virtual) followed by a customized report within five business days, including unbiased analysis and actionable recommendations.
- The CareScout Quality Network offers preferred pricing and rigorous credentialing standards for home care providers, accessible through the Care Finder online tool.
The big picture
CareScout’s expansion aligns with broader trends in aging demographics and rising long-term care costs, addressing a critical gap in accessible, high-quality care navigation. The move positions Genworth Financial to capture more of the $400 billion U.S. long-term care market by integrating care planning with funding solutions.
