About Baba

Baba is rebuilding healthcare for older adults.

Navigating healthcare can be overwhelming. By 2030, over 65 million older adults will make up nearly a quarter of the U.S. population, creating one of the largest and most urgent challenges in healthcare.

Baba makes it easier by pairing older adults with an expert advocate (usually a nurse or social worker) who coordinates their care.

Baba's insurance-covered advocates have supported thousands of families by writing insurance appeals, researching specialists, getting medical equipment and cheaper medications, and scheduling appointments.

Baba is backed by top tier investors and supports thousands of families across assisted living, nursing homes, and at-home settings. callbaba.com
