GERMANTOWN, Md., May 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The HealthWell Foundation^®, an independent non-profit that provides a financial lifeline for inadequately insured Americans, is excited to announce that it has recently launched an updated version of its disease fund tracking tool, Real-Time Fund Alerts.

Create an account with just your name and email address.
Once you are logged in, click "Get Fund Alerts" and select the funds you would like to monitor in real-time.

If the status of a fund changes, you will receive an instant notification through the email address you provided during registration. In addition, you can change the funds you would like to monitor by selecting additional funds or removing a currently selected fund at any time.

"We are always identifying new ways to make the HealthWell experience as user-friendly as possible and making our Real-Time Fund Alerts available to the general public has been an operational goal of the Foundation," said Fred Larbi, Director of Operations at HealthWell. "By offering this valuable resource to anyone who is interested in tracking the status of our funds, we have streamlined the process and eliminated the need to continuously check our disease funds listing to determine the status of a fund. The enhanced design now allows anyone to select the funds for which they would like to receive status updates. For example, if a fund selected is currently closed, the user will receive instant notification if the fund reopens or vice versa."

"We are thrilled to be able to offer this feature to our stakeholders and to further streamline the online user experience for everyone interested in monitoring the status of HealthWell's funds. Offering this feature to the general public continues to demonstrate our commitment to transparency by allowing everyone equal access to real-time information on fund status changes," said Krista Zodet, HealthWell Foundation President.
