Friends Life Care Consultants, Inc. is a subsidiary of Friends Life Care Partners
The original CCAH model, developed in 1985 by the organization that became Friends Life Care, was operating by 1990. In 1998, a second CCAH plan—one affiliated with a CCRC—was established in southern New Jersey. From 2002 to 2004, additional independent plans were implemented in Oberlin, Ohio, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Chattanooga, Tennessee. Each is affiliated with a CCRC or other health care organization. Seven more plans were introduced from 2009 to 2012.
All of these CCAH plans incorporate the key CCRC features included in the original Friends Life Care at Home business model, including upfront entrance fees averaging in excess of $45,000. Total enrollment ranges from a low of four members for a plan established in 2009 to a high of 230 members for one established in 2003. The average age at enrollment is mid-70s. Friends Life Care has membership of more than 2,200 with an average enrollment age roughly a decade younger; member satisfaction, as measured by Continuous Quality Improvement surveys, is nearly 100%.
