Clinical intelligence,
built for independent living.
Quiet in-apartment monitoring and a timely clinical intelligence read for your wellness team. Surfaces drift before it becomes a transfer.
Quiet clinical intelligence. Settled into every kind of senior home.
What it looks like in an independent living community
A continuous read on each apartment. A timely summary on each resident.
In the apartment
A sensor that disappears
Residents who chose independent living for the autonomy are not asked to wear or operate anything. The sensor sits on the wall, reads vitals quietly, and stays out of the way of how they already live.
At our end
Clinicians watching for slow drift
In independent living, the question is rarely about a single emergency. It is about the trajectory: who is moving less, who is sleeping worse, whose respiratory pattern is shifting over time.
At your wellness desk
A timely read on who to look at
Short, specific, and structured around your wellness rounds. The residents whose trajectory looks off, surfaced in time to act.
Why independent living wellness directors choose us
The hardest call is the resident whose decline no one flagged.
Independent living residents look healthy until they do not. A fall, an infection, or a slow cognitive shift forces a move to assisted living that everyone wishes had been caught earlier.
SwitzerHealth surfaces drift before it becomes a transfer. The continuous read is in the background; the timely summary is what your wellness team uses.

Almost nothing. The autonomy that defines independent living stays intact. Residents do not have to learn an app, push a button, or wear a wristband. The relief is for families who have been quietly worrying since the move-in.
When a family member asks how the community is keeping an eye on Mom or Dad, your team has a concrete answer.
How coverage works in independent living
Covered by Medicare for qualifying residents.
In independent living, SwitzerHealth's clinical services are delivered for qualifying residents under the care management code families. Coverage depends on valid physician orders, qualifying diagnoses, and individualized resident assessment.
Independent living residents typically have established primary care relationships outside the community. The clinical workflow is designed to coordinate with those relationships, not replace them.
What your community holds, and what we hold. Your community keeps its IL license and its independent operating model. Switzer Medical PC, a separate physician-owned clinical entity, owns the clinical work and bills the qualifying covered service. Your wellness team receives the timely interpretation.
FAQ
Common questions from independent living wellness teams
Why would an independent living community need clinical monitoring?
Independent living residents often look healthy until a fall, an infection, or a slow cognitive shift forces a transfer to assisted living or hospital. Continuous, contactless monitoring with timely clinical interpretation surfaces drift earlier so the wellness team can intervene before the next move is forced.
Will residents accept it?
Almost universally, yes. There is no wearable, no camera, and nothing the resident has to interact with. The sensor sits on the wall and reads vitals quietly. It is the most family-friendly monitoring modality available in this category.
How is the monitoring covered in independent living?
For qualifying residents the service is covered by Medicare under the care management code families. Coverage depends on valid physician orders, qualifying diagnoses, and individualized resident assessment.
What about residents who use their own primary care physician?
Our clinical team coordinates with the resident's established primary care relationship. The timely clinical intelligence report is for your wellness team; care decisions remain with the resident's existing physician where appropriate.
Who reviews the data?
A licensed clinical team at Switzer Medical PC reviews continuous monitoring data and produces a timely clinical intelligence report for your wellness team.
