Keep Safe Care has partnered with Stride Health to provide low-cost benefits to its network of caregivers.
AUSTIN, Texas and SAN FRANCISCO, May 6, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Keep Safe Care (keepsafecare.com), based in Austin, Texas has announced a new partnership with Stride to offer caregivers access to personalized and affordable benefits. Through Stride's portable benefits platform, caregivers using both the Keep Safe Care Private Duty platform and the direct-to-consumer Keep Safe Care Direct platform will be able to search and choose health, dental, and vision insurance options that fit their needs.
Founded four years ago, Keep Safe Care was created to combat the rising costs and inefficiencies in the in-home private duty caregiving industry, while also addressing challenges such as low caregiver wages, absenteeism, and high turnover rates.
"Our company's mission is to take care of our caregivers so they can take better care of our clients," said CEO Jeffrey Fry. "This includes offering higher wages with weekly pay, more ownership of the caregiving relationship, and compensation for travel expenses. We know the stress caregivers face living paycheck to paycheck, so offering a one-stop shop for affordable health insurance can help relieve some of this stress."
In addition to affordable health, dental and vision coverage, users of the Stride platform will be able to easily see if they qualify for ACA tax credits which could significantly lower their overall healthcare costs; access Stride's mobile app to track work-related expenses, such as mileage or meals, to help lower their tax bill; and have free, year-round access to Stride's customer service team of licensed, qualified agents to help them get the most of their benefits.
"Stride believes deeply that everyone, no matter the type of work they pursue, should have access to affordable healthcare coverage and benefits," said Bryan Giaimo, Vice President, Enterprise. "Caregivers shouldn't have to choose between financial stability and doing the meaningful, impactful work they want —we're making sure they don't have to."
