High blood pressure, abnormal cholesterol, extra weight, and prediabetes rarely arrive alone — together they form the early cardio-kidney-metabolic (eCKM) pattern that leads to diabetes, heart disease, and kidney failure. Medicare’s ACCESS Model now pays for continuous, technology-supported care to intervene before those diseases take hold.
Conditions Covered in the eCKM Track
- Hypertension (high blood pressure)
- Dyslipidemia (high or abnormal cholesterol/lipids)
- Overweight or obesity with central adiposity
- Prediabetes
How the Program Works
You receive connected, FDA-authorized monitoring devices (such as a blood pressure cuff and scale), regular telehealth check-ins with our clinical team, lifestyle and nutrition coaching, and medication management — all coordinated with your own primary care doctor, who receives structured Care Updates on your progress. Our targets track control or improvement in blood pressure, lipids, weight, and HbA1c against your own baseline — and Medicare pays us in full only when you improve. That is the meaning of outcome-aligned payment: our incentives are your outcomes.
Why Florida Elder Care
Geriatrician-led and triple-boarded in Geriatrics, Internal Medicine, and Nephrology, our team understands how blood pressure and metabolic targets should be adjusted for adults 65+ — aggressive enough to protect your heart and kidneys, careful enough to avoid over-treatment. If your kidneys are already affected, see our CKM kidney disease program.
