Project Kos | Senior healthcare, made simple

Senior care shouldn't be
this hard to figure out. Project Kos is here to help.

Begin

The care journey. In seven stages.

Senior healthcare moves through predictable phases. Tap any stage to see what is inside.

Stage 1
Getting started
The beginning of senior healthcare, before it becomes part of daily life. Enrollment windows, eligibility, and the deadlines that follow you the rest of your life if you miss them.

Stage 2
Learning the system
Your coverage has started. The letters, bills, cards, and acronyms begin to arrive. What each thing means, what is free, and which choices repeat every year.
Reading your first bill Preventive care Choosing a primary doctor Annual reviews

Stage 3
Something just happened
A fall, a hospital stay, a new diagnosis. Decisions made in the next 72 hours shape what comes after. What to ask, what to watch for, and the words hospitals use that mean something different than they sound.

Stage 4
Recovering at home
The transition back. Equipment, home health visits, therapy, and the line where medical coverage ends and daily care begins. What continues, what stops, and the gap most families do not see coming.

Stage 5
Managing ongoing care
Living with the system in the background. Multiple doctors, annual plan reviews, prescription costs, chronic conditions. Keeping things working before they break.

Things are getting harder
The moment the current setup stops working. Assisted living, memory care, paying privately, Medicaid spend-down, VA Aid and Attendance. The conversations families postpone.

Stage 7
Approaching end of life
The final chapter. Hospice, palliative care, advance directives, and a benefit most families find too late. What is covered, what the family can expect, and the decisions that let this time be about what matters.
