About Us

Our Mission

To engage senior populations with hearing loss, who are at higher risk for cognitive decline, falls, and depression, in effective programming provided through care partners and act as a healthy aging guide to our members, providing tools, education, and engagement services on behalf of providers and payors.

What Industry Experts Are Saying:

Joe Smith, MD, PhD, Consultant and Adjunct Professor, Johns Hopkins University:

 "Combining hearing care with these virtual care services to increase access and improve coordination of care for older adults is the kind of innovation our healthcare system needs. AlliedVirtualCare’s three Co-Founders, Brian Bischoff, Kelly Prchal and Adrian Lister, are a well-poised team to lead AlliedVirtualCare into the next phases of its growth, offering one of the most innovative and comprehensive digital healthcare programs in the senior care sector.”


Tiffany E. Shubert, PT, PhD, Senior Project Manager - Therapy, Relias:

 “AlliedVirtualCare’s holistic focus on providing one platform to address key issues associated with hearing loss is an important development in the use of technology to support aging in place. These interventions create opportunities for greater senior engagement and reduced caregiver stress. I strongly support their efforts to reduce barriers to care for these innovative services.”
