What is the BrightStar Care National Accounts Program?

You will operate an agency that provides and markets comprehensive non-medical and/or medical home care services to national account clients or home care clients within their home or residence as well as supplemental healthcare staff to institutional clients according to the administrative and operational components noted in your Franchise Agreement (the "BrightStar Care Agency Program" or "Program"). A "private-duty client" means a client who receives care in the client's home or other place of residence regardless of the nature of the payor for such care (e.g., a private individual, long-term care insurance, commercial insurance, National Accounts payor, Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, etc.). A copy of the Franchise Agreement is attached as Exhibit B to this Disclosure Document. As described in further detail below, the BrightStar Care Agency Program provides franchisees with four primary revenue streams: Non-Medical (Companion) Caregiver inhome care services, Personal Care in-home care services, Medical Skilled Care in-home care services, and Supplemental Healthcare Staffing. As a new location, the training will emphasize Companion, Personal Care, and Skilled in-home care services as well as utilization of the BrightStar Care National Accounts Program. You will be offered supplemental training for Medical Skilled in-home care services (where allowed by state licensure laws) and Supplemental Healthcare Staffing. Some BrightStar Care franchisees offer all four services, and some do not. For example, not all franchisees provide Medical Skilled Care in-home care services where state regulations prevent their ability to do so (as further described below) or where Certificate of Need laws do not allow some or all medical skilled services.
