Why Enterprise Bonuses Are Higher
Enterprise agreements generate 10-100x revenue vs individual signups. A single hospital or aged care facility partnership brings $50K-$500K ARR, hundreds of patients, and EHR integration stickiness.
Evidence-Based Model
The program is modeled on the CDC's Healthy Tribes Program-a decade-long initiative proving culture-first approaches work for chronic disease prevention.
Core Principles
- Culture as Protective Factor: Culture builds resilience and holistic health
- Community-Driven: Co-create strategies with local partners
- Root Cause Focus: Address underlying SDOH factors
- Cultural Humility: Deep respect for traditions and community practices
Proven Results
CHW-led interventions demonstrably improve cancer screening completion, chronic disease management, and health literacy in underserved populations. CareHub applies these principles globally.
