Eldersys

In development

A clear next step.
At your pace.

Complicated digital tasks shouldn't require you to know where to start. Eldersys helps you explore a direction through clear choices, one understandable step at a time.

Explore the practice guide

Try a made-up situation and make a checklist of questions to verify. Live Medicare guidance is not available.

A sample practice question

Start by choosing what you need.

Your first step toward understanding Medicare

  1. I want to understand when and how to sign up
  2. I want to understand costs and coverage
  3. I want to understand my Medicare options

“I'm not sure” is a starting point, too.

The sign-up and costs practices help you prepare questions for a made-up person.

The approach

You set the direction.
The steps stay manageable.

Designed for older adults first, and for anyone who prefers a clearer path through a complicated task. You don't need to explain a disability to use it.

Start where you are

A broad need doesn't decide your goal. Explore a small set of choices, then confirm the direction you want.

Change the wording, keep the goal

Ask for simpler wording or more detail. The practice guide uses fixed wording options and keeps your confirmed goal.

Keep a way back

Go back to revisit a choice, start again, or exit. Nothing advances until you choose.

Where we are

Practice today.
Reviewed guidance ahead.

We're developing the interaction before offering real Medicare guidance. Accessibility and comprehension still need review and testing with intended users.

Available to explore
An English choices-only practice walkthrough with fixed simpler wording, goal confirmation and recovery. “I'm not sure” is a choice, too. Sign-up and costs-and-coverage practices each end with four selected questions to verify. The Medicare options walkthrough is still being developed.
Planned first pilot
Medicare information navigation for people approaching 65, with reviewed statements, a short checklist and authoritative resources. Suitable content review is still required.
Longer-term direction
Reusable interaction rules for other complex services, websites and agents. Vietnamese expansion is a firm priority. Optional read-aloud uses browser/device speech where supported. Optional progress saving remains planned.

Take a look

Try one question at a time.

Use a made-up situation and explore the interaction. The practice provides no eligibility decisions, plan recommendations or enrollment.
