Seniorlink CEO Thomas Riley and President Matt Marek to Join Senator Bill Frist, M.D. on leading Podcast, A Second Opinion

BOSTON, Nov. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Seniorlink, Inc. Chief Executive Officer Thomas Riley and President Matt Marek will be guests on A Second Opinion, a podcast hosted by Senator Bill Frist, M.D., that shares health insights and examines the nexus of policy, medicine, and innovation in American healthcare.

Riley and Marek will speak on the importance of supporting family caregivers – 53 million strong - who form the backbone of America's healthcare system and provide the equivalent of $470 billion in unpaid services to ensure that loved ones with chronic conditions receive high-quality care in the comfort of their home while remaining in the community. The COVID-19 pandemic shined the spotlight on the valuable contributions of these caregivers as families accelerated the trend of bringing care home. Local and state policymakers, along with providers, are starting to respond by offering new programs to support caregiver needs. Engaging family caregivers is a national movement that is proving to reduce overall healthcare costs and improve patient outcomes at a time when the American healthcare system is feeling the impact of the pandemic while adjusting to rising trends with older Americans.
