By 2040, America's aging population will double. This group is predicted to reach 55 million and outnumber the youth population. With such a large group of aging adults, the demand for care facilities and senior services is increasing drastically. Considering the constraints of existing infrastructure, seniors are facing more barriers to receiving the care they need to have a high quality of life.
Carepool, a ride-sharing service that aids the insurance companies, state-managed Medicaid and Medicare, is filling the gap when it comes to affordable, safe, and wheelchair accessible transportation to healthcare facilities. Founded in 2018 by Josh Massey, Carepool was born from the need to assist seniors and people with disabilities.
