LogicMark Provides Device Access With Medicaid Waiver Programs

LOUISVILLE, Kentucky—LogicMark Inc., a personal emergency response system (PERS), health communications devices and technology provider, announced the access expansion of its safety devices in Colorado, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Nevada and South Dakota through the Medicaid waiver system. This new government integration seeks to enable eligible individuals to receive full or partial reimbursement for monthly monitoring fees when leasing LogicMark’s medical alert devices.

“We are thrilled to announce this integration with Medicaid as our aging populations deserve the utmost care without sacrificing new technologies & innovations because of cost,” said Chia-Lin Simmons, president and CEO of LogicMark. “This expansion strengthens our ability to empower seniors to live independently and safely in their homes, ultimately enhancing their quality of life and helping ease the mountain of responsibilities caregivers face in protecting their loved ones. Expanding the access to LogicMark products via the Medicaid waiver program throughout the U.S. is a major initiative for 2025, with a focused team dedicated to working closely with state and federal governments to get seniors the care they need.”

The company said through this system, eligible seniors will be able to access LogicMark’s safety devices without incurring significant out-of-pocket costs. This initiative aims to help mitigate financial barriers many fixed-income individuals face in accessing essential safety devices. Additionally, the expansion into the Medicaid waiver program intends to support caregivers by giving them better peace of mind in ensuring the safety of their aging loved ones.

The Medicaid waiver program offers long-term care for individuals who prefer support at home rather than in institutions. Additionally, the program seeks to enable states to adjust Medicaid rules and offer medical and non-medical services to individuals transitioning from institutions to their homes and communities.
