The NextAvenue editorial highlights Best Buy Health’s commitment to supporting the aging population through technology. Originally launched as GreatCall, Lively developed user-friendly tech for seniors, like the Jitterbug phone. After Best Buy’s $800 million acquisition in 2018, the focus shifted to solutions that facilitate aging in place. With growing demographic concerns, data indicates that the population over 65 is nearing 60 million. Best Buy aims to provide health products, emergency response services, and virtual care to enable aging adults to live healthier at home, addressing specific needs of older adults and their caregivers.
The health space is a large, growing market where technology can help in particular address the needs of aging consumers, their caregivers, payers and providers.
Best Buy is specifically focused on addressing the growing needs of the aging population with...technology products, services and solutions...to enable care at home.
Today, there are approximately 50 million Americans over age 65, a number that is expected to increase by more than 50 percent within the next 20 years.
Lively explains explicitly that it seeks to facilitate solutions that allow for aging in place.
