The Vault organized everything. Now who keeps it moving?
You've got the records, the care team directory, the access. But referrals still need follow-up. Appointments still need scheduling. Portals still need checking. And your family still needs to know what's happening.
A Continuity Plan means your Care Continuity Partner keeps working — following through on tasks, coordinating with providers, and keeping your family aligned. You decide whether that makes sense. The Vault is yours to keep either way — a valuable finished artifact even without ongoing support. But without a Continuity Plan, it becomes a snapshot in time as care evolves.
What happens after the Vault — without a Care Continuity Partner
The Vault gives your family a clear starting point. But care doesn't stop moving. Without someone working the list, these patterns set in quickly:
A specialist referral gets sent, but no one follows up. The office never calls. Sixty days pass. Now it needs to be re-submitted — and you didn't even know it stalled.
New medications, a new provider, a hospital stay — and the organized Vault you built starts to fall behind. Without someone maintaining it, the Vault is a valuable finished artifact — but it becomes a snapshot in time rather than a living document.
Your brother calls asking what the doctor said. Your mother tells him something different than what you heard. No one has the full picture — and you're back to relaying everything yourself.
Slowly, the administrative work creeps back onto your plate — the same calls, the same portals, the same "I'll deal with it later" that brought you to Averyn in the first place.
None of this is a crisis. It's just drift — and it's the reason most care plans break down after the exam room. See the time burden research →
What a week looks like with a Care Continuity Partner
A Continuity Plan isn't a subscription to a dashboard. It's a real person doing real administrative work on your family's behalf — every week. Your Care Continuity Partner coordinates the logistics, navigates the systems, and advocates at your direction.
- Schedule appointments around your family's availability
- Arrange transportation and confirm pickup times
- Coordinate supply orders — medical, household, pharmacy transfers
- Reschedule the whole calendar when a hospitalization disrupts everything
- Orient new caregivers or home helpers to the household
- Draft intake and admin forms from records already on file
- Wait on hold, take callbacks, and chase the answer
- Track referrals, prior authorizations, and insurance admin steps
- Check portals and relay relevant updates to the family
- Collect and organize EOBs, payer letters, and provider documents
- Push home health to actually schedule your covered visits before the window expires
- Push for written clarification and documented next steps when you ask us to
- Attend specialist calls by phone or video to capture notes and after-actions
- Relay your family's questions to providers and bring back the answer
- Escalate to patient relations or other contacts when you ask us to
- One written weekly update so the whole household sees the same facts
- Family Alignment Calls so siblings and helpers stop operating from different versions
- New records added, care team changes captured, Vault always current
- Extended family gets updates through the app — without the Primary Contact relaying everything
What you receive
Every Continuity Plan includes structured deliverables — real documents, real coordination, not just conversations. Your assigned Care Continuity Partner is a person you know by name, and they're a phone call away.
A written update covering what happened, what's pending, and what's coming — shared with everyone on the account. Replaces the "what did the doctor say?" phone chain.
When a hospitalization occurs, your Care Continuity Partner produces same-day written updates and a discharge packet with responsibilities, follow-ups, and a transition runway.
A structured call with the family — not just the patient — to reset priorities, clarify roles, and confirm next steps. Unlike most care management, Averyn serves the whole household.
Expanded: 1 quarterly · Dedicated: 1 monthly · Anchor: as needed
A living, day-by-day care plan — medications, activities, daily routines — defined once, followed by every helper. When a new caregiver shows up, the Ledger is their onboarding.
Expanded: self-managed (you maintain it, Care Continuity Partner reviews) · Dedicated: co-managed · Anchor: fully maintained daily by your Care Continuity Partner
A shared command center for your whole family — one dashboard, one message thread, one calendar, the Care Ledger, and your Record Vault. Your Care Continuity Partner is always reachable inside the app or by phone.
With a Continuity Plan, the Vault stays alive: new records added, medication snapshots updated, care team directory kept current, and Baseline Snapshot refreshed after significant events. The family context and source labeling grow richer over time — so your Record Vault is always current and ready when you need it.

These are real deliverable formats — generalized for privacy, but the structure is what matters. Scroll through a few, or see the full library.
- Weekly family summary — what moved, what's blocked, what's next. Shared with every family member on the account.
- Hospital briefings — same-day written updates during a hospitalization, plus a discharge packet with the full transition plan.
- Hospital-to-home plan — follow-up appointments, new medications, equipment, home care referrals, and a 4-week tracking timeline.
Your family's shared command center
Included with every Continuity Plan. The Averyn app replaces the group text nobody reads, the shared calendar nobody updates, and the "what did the doctor say?" phone chain. And your assigned Care Continuity Partner is always reachable — inside the app or by phone.
Your Care Continuity Partner, your siblings, caregivers — all in the same conversation. When something changes, everyone sees it.
Every appointment, every follow-up, every pickup time — in one place. Your Care Continuity Partner keeps it current.
A living, day-by-day care plan every helper works from — medications, activities, and daily routines defined once, followed by everyone.
Records, care team directory, authorizations — maintained by your Care Continuity Partner and accessible to anyone on the account.
Use of the app is optional — your Care Continuity Partner reaches out however works best (phone, email, text, video). But when you want an extended family or caregivers on the same page, this is where that happens.

Built for the whole family — not just the patient
Most care management products are built for one person: the patient, or the one family member who does everything. Averyn is different. Every family member involved in a loved one's care gets their own account, their own notifications, and their own view of what's happening — because the coordination problem isn't one person's job.
Weekly summaries, hospital briefings, calendar updates, and Care Continuity Partner messages go to the whole household — not just the Primary Contact. Siblings in different time zones, caregivers on rotating shifts, and the supported person themselves all work from the same facts.
Your Care Continuity Partner facilitates structured calls with the family — not a patient-provider check-in, but a household coordination session. Roles get clarified, priorities get reset, and everyone leaves knowing who's handling what. This is how you stop the "I thought you were doing that" pattern.
Your Care Continuity Partner works for the household. The Primary Contact sets the direction, but everyone who needs to be in the loop gets to be — without anyone having to relay the information.
What drives Continuity Plan level
It's not about how often you want to talk. It's about how much coordination your household actually requires.
- More providers and portals — more coordination and more loose ends to track
- More family members involved — more alignment and communication work
- Transitions (hospital, rehab, new diagnosis) — more time-sensitive tasks
- In-home helpers or rotating caregivers — handoffs, exceptions, daily management
Plan level increases when the household has more loose ends and more people to keep aligned.
Four plans — three levels of support, one different model
Essentials, Expanded, and Dedicated scale along a spectrum based on coordination burden — how many providers, systems, and loose ends your household is managing. Anchor is a different operating model entirely — daily coordination for households where the home plan is fragile. Most families land somewhere in the first three.
Three tiers of ongoing support
Maintenance mode — keep things current. Scheduled check-ins, written updates, and lighter-touch support when something needs attention.
Good fit: Stable situations, additional supported persons, or lighter-touch support after stepping down from a higher plan.
Typically for households with several providers or systems where the situation is mostly stable, but there is steady administrative work between visits — scheduling, transportation, forms, refills, portal questions, and family updates. Your Care Continuity Partner works the open loops so they don't pile up.
Planned rhythm: An every-two-week working conversation with your Care Continuity Partner, plus coordination touchpoints as needed.
Typically for households with multiple active providers, systems, or care surfaces where something care-related is happening most weeks — specialist visits, therapy, transportation planning, caregiver coordination, or recurring follow-up. The situation changes more often, and new loose ends appear regularly.
Planned rhythm: A weekly working conversation with your Care Continuity Partner, plus more active support between calls.
Most families start at Expanded and adjust from there.
From executive assistant to assistant manager
Essentials, Expanded, and Dedicated act like an executive assistant for your care logistics — handling calls, portals, follow-ups, and updates on your behalf. Anchor shifts to an assistant manager role: running daily caregiver coordination, maintaining the Care Ledger, and keeping the home-based plan executable — not just handling tasks, but running the system.
What Anchor includes
- Daily check-ins with caregivers, home health staff, or family caregivers
- Care Ledger — maintained daily so new helpers don't restart from zero
- Appointment attendance by phone/video, capturing instructions in real time
- Dedicated callback line — shields the Supported Person from the phone/portal avalanche
- Caregiver handoff discipline — onboarding new helpers to the Ledger on day one
When Anchor fits
- The home plan is fragile enough that it needs daily operating discipline — rotating caregivers, active transitions, or a plan that drifts without daily attention
- Caregiver turnover is frequent enough that mistakes and rework happen
- The Primary Contact is spending significant daily time just getting a reliable status update
- Active transition: hospital → home, SNF/rehab → home, new meds, new provider network
Most families use Anchor during fragile seasons, then step down to Dedicated once things stabilize.
What changes when a Care Continuity Partner is in the picture
- Chasing callbacks between meetings and late at night
- Four different portals, none in sync
- Siblings asking "what's happening?" — and you're the only one who knows
- A referral from three weeks ago — still pending, no one following up
- Your Care Continuity Partner handles every follow-up — calls, portals, paperwork
- One organized Vault with everything in one place
- Weekly update lands in everyone's inbox — same facts, same page
- Referrals tracked, followed up, documented — your Care Continuity Partner stays on it
Common situations where families add a Continuity Plan
You don't need a crisis to start. But certain situations make the value obvious.
The first 30 days after discharge are when things fall apart — missed follow-ups, medication confusion, unscheduled referrals. A Care Continuity Partner runs the list so the plan doesn't unravel after discharge.
When multiple family members are involved, miscommunication is the default. Weekly summaries and shared visibility mean everyone works from the same facts — without you being the relay.
Specialists who never call. Prior auths that sit in limbo. Lab results that need context. Your Care Continuity Partner persistently tracks each one until it's resolved.
You can't be there every day. A Care Continuity Partner gives you reliable status updates and handles the in-the-weeds coordination so you're not guessing from 500 miles away.
