The patient has changed. The practice has stayed the same. The system has run out of capacity.

The gap
Real life happens between appointments
Follow-up is a few clinic slots a year. Deterioration, missed doses and stalled treatment happen in between. Lifeyear helps the care team see what happens in those months and act on it, with less work.
A year of usual care
A few appointments. The rest goes unseen.
A year with Lifeyear

How it works
