What is chronic care management?
Medicare chronic care management is a structured Medicare Part B program for members with two or more chronic conditions. It provides ongoing support between doctor visits through care coordination, telehealth, remote patient monitoring, and social benefit navigation.
A chronic care management program is not meant to replace your doctor. It fills the gap between appointments, catches problems early, and keeps every piece of your care working together. Chronic conditions do not stop between visits. Neither does POD Health.
Why chronic care management matters?
For many Florida members, hurricane season and summer heat add extra risk: storms can delay pharmacy refills or doctor visits, and extreme heat is especially hard on those managing chronic conditions.
Without consistent monitoring, small changes can go unnoticed until they become serious. POD Health’s telehealth closes that gap, keeping you connected with your care team every month, monitoring your health data, and reaching out when something needs attention.
Supporting Florida's Medicare community
Florida is home to one of the largest Medicare populations in the country, including many retirees managing multiple chronic conditions at once. POD Health’s Tampa-based team understands the everyday realities of coordinating care across snowbird schedules, seasonal address changes, and Florida’s mix of urban and rural healthcare access. Whether you split your time between states or call Florida home year-round, your chronic care management plan stays consistent no matter where you are.

I didn’t even know I was missing benefits until Pod called. They helped me get set up with the right support and got my paperwork sorted. I didn’t have to do a thing. They really looked out for me.

I was trying to help my mom get care, but it was so confusing. Pod walked me through everything in plain English and followed up until she had services at home. I honestly don’t know what we would’ve done without them.
