Shaping Policy That Supports Connected Care

Everyone deserves to live safely, confidently, and with dignity — wherever they call home.

Our Mission

At CHS, we believe connected care should be accessible to everyone. People of all ages and abilities deserve the chance to live independently, supported by innovative technologies and reliable services.

We advocate for policies that expand access to remote care, personal safety tools, and home-based wellness solutions — regardless of income, location, or insurance status.

That means pushing for reimbursement, funding, and infrastructure to ensure connected care isn’t just available, it’s fully integrated, supported, and equitable.

Our Legislative Focus

We are actively engaged on Capitol Hill and in statehouses across the country, advocating for policies that reflect the evolving needs of individuals, families, and providers in the connected care space.

With every conversation, every piece of legislation, and every letter sent to lawmakers, we’re working to make living safer, connected, and more affordable for millions of Americans.

Expand Coverage

We advocate for broader reimbursement of remote care, monitoring, and safety services across Medicare, Medicaid, and private payers. Our advocates ensure connected care is recognized as essential to health and independence.

Regulatory Simplification

Support policies that remove outdated barriers to tech-enabled care. Promote clear, scalable standards that keep pace with innovation.

Innovation Investment

Pushing for public investment that accelerates the adoption of connected care technologies, remote monitoring, and digital health infrastructure.

Equity in Access

Ensuring fair and consistent access to safe, connected care across all communities. Supporting policies that eliminates barriers for underserved, rural, and diverse populations.

Every Policy Affects a Person

Behind every policy decision are real people — from the individuals striving for independence to the caregivers and providers working to support them.

CHS is committed to amplifying all these voices. We spotlight the people and companies creating safer, more connected futures for millions.
