HCD Value-Based Program: Improve Member Outcomes and Streamline Operations
At Home Care Delivered (HCD), we put you and your members first. Our value-based programs are designed to improve clinical outcomes, simplify workflows, and ensure reliable access to insurance-covered medical supplies. Our programs combine deep insurance expertise, strong provider relationships, and member-focused service to deliver measurable impact for health plans and communities. These programs are fully customizable to your plan’s population, objectives, and coverage requirements.
Incontinence Program
What is an incontinence support program for health plan members?
An incontinence support program helps members living with bladder or bowel incontinence receive the correct products, protect skin health, and reduce risks associated with leaks, infections, and falls. What does the program do?
- Helps reduce fall risk caused by urgent bathroom trips
- Supports skin integrity and helps reduce incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD)
- Promotes a healthier micro-climate to reduce moisture and irritation
- Tracks potential urinary tract infection (UTI) indicators
- Uses an enhanced intake process to match members with the correct product from the start
Why does it matter? More than 25 million people in the United States live with incontinence, and according to the National Association for Continence (NAFC), up to 80% of adults with incontinence may be using products that do not meet their needs. Improper product fit can lead to leaks, skin irritation, falls, and reduced quality of life. Ensuring members receive the correct product helps improve comfort, dignity, and overall health outcomes.
Period Program
What is a period support program for health plans?
A menstrual health program helps ensure members have reliable access to menstrual products, improving hygiene, health outcomes, and daily functioning.
What does the program support?
- Helps reduce infection risk associated with poor menstrual hygiene
- Reduces financial burden related to lower income situations to access period products
- Supports social participation and mental well-being
Why does it matter?
Limited access to menstrual products affects physical health, mental well-being, and financial stability. Globally, an estimated 500 million women lack reliable access to menstrual products and appropriate menstrual hygiene resources.
Research from Saint Louis University found that 36% of working women surveyed missed at least one day of work each month due to lack of appropriate menstrual supplies.
Providing access to menstrual products helps support dignity, hygiene, and participation in work and daily life.
Diaper Program
What is a diaper support program for families?
A diaper support program helps families access essential infant hygiene supplies while supporting infant skin health and overall well-being.
What does the program support?
- Helps prevent diaper rash and skin irritation
- Supports infant skin health and hygiene
- Keeps babies clean, dry, and comfortable
Why does it matter?
Diaper need is a significant challenge for many families. Nearly 47% of families report struggling to afford diapers, and approximately 5 million babies and toddlers under age 3 in low-income households do not receive diapers through government assistance programs.
Research conducted by the National Diaper Bank Network through its Diaper Check national survey also shows that 1 in 4 parents experiencing diaper need miss work or school because they do not have enough diapers for childcare.
Helping families access diapers supports infant health, reduces family stress, and improves stability.
At-Home UTI Monitoring Program
What is an at-home UTI monitoring program?
An at-home urinary tract infection (UTI) monitoring program helps members identify potential infections early, allowing for faster treatment and reducing unnecessary emergency or urgent care visits.
What does the program support?
- Helps identify potential infections at home
- Encourages earlier clinical intervention and treatment
- Reduces avoidable urgent care and emergency department visits
Why does it matter?
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common infections in the United States. Each year they lead to:
- 7 million physician office visits
- 1 million emergency department visits
- 100,000+ hospitalizations
These encounters result in an estimated $1.6 billion in annual healthcare costs. Early identification and intervention can help prevent infection progression and reduce high-cost healthcare utilization.1
