Together Senior Health

What Together Senior Health does

Together Senior Health is a digital therapeutic company that delivers live-streaming, online group movement classes to older adults with memory loss, Alzheimer's disease, dementia, and mild cognitive impairment. Its core offering is the Moving Together program, which comprises four class formats — Proactive Brain Health, Balance & Coordination, Active, and Seated — that combine gentle movement, mindfulness, brain-healthy activities, social connection, and music. The platform is built on the PLIÉ (Preventing Loss of Independence through Exercise) methodology developed at UCSF and the Veterans Administration over more than a decade of NIH-funded research, leveraging preserved procedural memory in people with cognitive decline. Clinical trial results published in Alzheimer's & Dementia in May 2024 demonstrated a 14% fall rate among participants versus 27% in the control group, with pilot studies reporting 2-3x better outcomes than best-in-class drugs across multiple measures.

The company operates a dual-channel revenue model. The direct-to-consumer motion sells monthly subscriptions to individuals and care partners through the website, with out-of-pocket payment since Together does not currently bill Medicare or Medicaid. The enterprise motion, launched in April 2022, licenses the integrated cognitive health platform to Medicare Advantage health plans, home health agencies, and healthcare organizations as a member or patient benefit. Reported partners include ACO Rainier Health Network (a CommonSpirit affiliate) and Long Island Alzheimer's & Dementia Center. The company is incorporated in Delaware, headquartered in San Francisco, with a Boston office, and has been built on approximately $3M+ in NIH SBIR grants plus an operational partnership with Redesign Health from September 2021.

On July 24, 2024, Together Senior Health was acquired by Linus Health, a digital health company focused on early detection of cognitive decline, and now operates as a brand within Linus's broader brain health platform combining screening and intervention. Leadership includes CEO and co-founder Cynthia Benjamin, Chief Science Advisor Dr. Deborah Barnes (UCSF Professor), COO Joshua Habib (ex-UnitedHealth Group), and Head of Product Inna Sheyn (ex-AARP Services, NCQA, UnitedHealth). The website now carries 'Together Powered by Linus Health' branding.
