Medicare/Medicaid Advocacy

An experienced healthcare professional who helps you understand your care plan, coordinate with clinicians and insurers, and handle practical care tasks while keeping your priorities central.

An advocate can help manage appointments, insurance, bills, prescriptions, follow-ups, calls, paperwork, and next steps when healthcare becomes difficult to coordinate on your own.

You work with a person. Baba uses software and AI for administrative support, but your advocate manages the relationship, coordination decisions, and follow-through.

Baba advocates include experienced nurses, social workers, benefits specialists, and care coordinators who work across clinical offices, insurance plans, pharmacies, equipment suppliers, and community services.

You begin with a virtual intake. Baba checks eligibility and coverage, then matches eligible clients with an advocate who learns about their needs, preferences, and current care plan.

Advocates do not diagnose, prescribe, change clinical instructions, give legal advice, or provide hands-on care. Clinical questions are directed back to the appropriate licensed clinician.

Coverage is checked individually. Medicare and Medicare Advantage cover advocacy for many eligible clients, and most eligible clients have no out-of-pocket cost.

Baba reviews the client’s insurance plan, location, and service requirements. Coverage varies by plan and state, and expected costs are explained before enrollment.

Yes. An advocate can organize records, coordinate specialists and therapy, track prescriptions and equipment, arrange transportation, and prepare follow-up questions related to a condition or recovery plan.

Yes, with the client’s permission. The client decides who can join calls, receive reminders or updates, and help with next steps, and can change that permission later.

Yes. A family member can help someone get started and join the first conversation, but the person receiving support must agree to the service and decide what information Baba may share.

Not if the family member can make their own decisions and give permission directly. If someone already acts under a power of attorney, Baba will confirm which documents are needed.

Communication can happen by phone, text, email, or through Baba’s website, based on the client’s preferences and the work being done.

Baba protects personal and health information and shares it only with authorized people or as needed to provide the service. Clients choose who may be contacted and what can be shared.

Yes, when the person remains eligible and wants to continue. Baba can keep helping with unresolved insurance, appointment, equipment, benefit, and family-coordination needs after a facility or home-health episode ends.
