ESTERO, Fla., Oct. 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Visory Health, a women-led, patient-first health tech prescription platform that is transforming the way women, families and caregivers access affordable healthcare through its prescription discount card, today announces its partnership with the Folds of Honor Foundation, an organization that provides life-changing scholarships to the spouses and children of fallen or disabled U.S. service members and first responders. Through this collaboration, Visory Health is widening affordable prescription access to these Americans, their families and caregivers, and all those who support Veterans.
"Veterans have unique health needs and deserve the utmost care and attention from our healthcare system. We’re deeply committed to supporting those who have sacrificed for our country and who continue to serve. As a retired Veteran, it is my duty to advocate for fellow Vets by ensuring they have access to affordable healthcare," said Dr. Cheryl Creamer, Chief Clinical Officer of Visory Health. "By expanding resources and providing education, we can build healthier communities together.”
Many Veterans encounter challenges in navigating healthcare and may not be fully informed about the benefits available to them. Some Veterans are not eligible for VA health care, as eligibility is often based on length of military service, having a health condition related to military service, and income. Additionally, most government or state-funded healthcare does not extend benefits to the immediate family of the service member. Visory Health is combating these challenges by providing its no-cost, easy-to-use, insurance-free prescription discount card to this patient population and working with Folds of Honor to prioritize the health of Veterans and their families.
“Folds of Honor is proud to team up with Visory Health," said Folds of Honor - St. Louis President, Doug Mitchell. "We believe the partnership will be a force multiplier to the mission and awareness of Folds of Honor and increase scholarship funding to the families of American military and first responder heroes. Together we will meet sacrifice with hope.”
