Seniorlink is a tech-enabled care management organisation that focuses on assisting family carers in keeping care at home. Seniorlink blends Vela, the company's unique care collaboration tool, with evidence-based clinical guidelines and the personal touch of specialised care teams who collaborate with family caregivers.
Fremont, CA: President and Chief Operating Officer Matt Marekhas been named Chief Executive Officer of Seniorlink, Inc., a leading tech-enabled care management firm, starting immediately. He succeeds Thomas Riley, who has served as Chairman of the Board of Directors since 2009 and will remain with the Boston-based corporation.
Marek joined Seniorlink in January 2021 after serving as President and CEO of Further, a prominent HSA administrator in St. Paul, Minnesota. Marek grew Further into a national corporation with exclusive connections with nine insurance companies during his five-year tenure. At Marek's departure, Further served almost 1 million members in 50 states, and Health Equity recently bought it. Marek formerly worked for Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota, and United Healthcare in executive positions.
Marek will continue to develop Seniorlink's collaborations with state governments and health plans across the United States as demand for home- and community-based services and supports grows, with family caregivers playing an increasingly important role. More than 53 million Americans provide at-home care for loved ones who are ageing or have chronic illnesses or disabilities, totaling more than $470 billion in healthcare services each year. Their numbers will continue to expand, a need that will be exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.

They are the bedrock of our healthcare system, and they are at the centre of every Seniorlink care model "Marek remarked. "I am pleased to have this chance to head a firm that not only honours the role of the family caregiver, but also seeks out new ways to uplift and support them with solutions that will ultimately result in better results for members, carers, and payors alike."
