The care team that follows through.

For young adults with disabilities, rare and complex conditions, leaving pediatric care. A navigator and a nurse practitioner keep every referral, refill, renewal and approval moving until it's done, by text and phone, with an app if you want one.

Same day

Between 18 and 26, almost everything resets.

It happens over a few years and usually lands on one parent with a binder. Parea takes on the follow-up.

  1. Age 18

    Decisions become yours

    Doctors need your consent, or a guardian's or health care proxy's. SSI reviews your case again under adult rules.

  2. Age 18–21

    Pediatric teams let go

    Children's hospitals discharge you to adult doctors, who may never have treated your condition. Referrals stall without someone chasing them.

  3. Age 21

    School services end

    In New Jersey, the Division of Developmental Disabilities takes over, if eligibility and the service plan are done in time.

  4. Age 26

    A parent's plan ends

    Coverage as a dependent on private insurance stops. Medicaid, Medicare or your own plan has to be in place first.

How Parea works

One loop, repeated: notice what changed, decide who acts, and keep at it until it's done.

How is your energy?

  • Very low
  • Low
  • Usual (selected)
  • More than usual
Every picture has a word. Large targets, no timers, and a supporter can answer with your OK.
  1. An intake with your navigator

    About you, how you communicate, what a usual day looks like, what you want, and who is on your team.

  2. Text, call, or use the app

    Your navigator works by text and phone. The app is there when you want it, but you never have to open it.

  3. Coverage kept in place

    Medicaid renewals, the SSI review at 18, and proof of any exemption from new work rules are tracked with their dates, so nothing lapses by mistake.

  4. A care plan that stays current

    Your conditions, your warning signs, and your goals in your own words. A nurse practitioner reviews and activates it.

  5. Check-ins in pictures

    Energy, eating, sleep, mood and pain, daily, weekly or only when something changes. Each answer is compared with your usual day.

  6. A person reviews every change

    Anything different from usual goes to a named person on the team the same business day. Health changes go to the nurse practitioner.

  7. Tracked until it's closed

    Referrals, refills, equipment, authorizations and benefit deadlines each show the step they're on and how long they've been there.

People who know your name.

  • Care navigator

    Runs your intake, owns your tasks, and is the person you call or text first.

  • Nurse practitioner

    Activates your care plan and reviews health changes every business day.

  • Social worker

    Benefits, housing, guardianship questions, and the stress that comes with all of it.

  • Peer facilitator

    A young adult with a disability who runs video circles twice a month and helps look after the members' forum.

  • Medical advisor

    Dr. Ehrenberger approves the team's protocols and handles escalations.

Your circle, your rules.

Bring in a parent, a sibling, a friend or an attendant. You decide what each person sees, one category at a time, and you can change it whenever you like. New people start with updates only.

If a guardian or health care proxy signs for you, Parea still records your own say, every time.

    $300 a month

    A weekly video visit with your nurse practitioner, an NP you can call or text directly, and a navigator who sees every referral and renewal through. For young adults 18 to 30 whose coverage doesn't pay for care coordination: private insurance, a parent's plan, or none yet. Cancel any time.

    Transition planning for ages 14 to 17, and planning sessions for parents: guardianship and supported decision-making, letters of intent, and what happens later on.
