Payment Terms

Third-Party Payers

Where a third party is the source of payment — a long-term care insurance policy, a veterans' benefit, or a health plan benefit — the specific arrangement is set out in your Service Agreement, and services remain subject to that payer's approval and coverage limitations. You remain responsible for any amount a payer does not cover.

Text Message (SMS) Program Terms

VitalTouch Health Network, Inc. operates a text messaging program for people who ask us about home care, families we already serve, and people applying to work with us. These terms apply to that program.

How You Join

You join by checking the consent box on a form at vitaltouchcares.com and giving us your mobile number, or by texting or calling us first. We never add a number that was not given to us directly, and we do not buy, rent, or import contact lists.

Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of purchase or of receiving any service from us.

Messages you may receive include:

  • Replies to an enquiry you sent us
  • Scheduling, confirming, or changing a visit or appointment
  • Updates about care we are providing
  • Application and interview updates, if you applied to work with us

Frequency, Cost, and Support

  • Message frequency varies depending on your enquiry and the care being scheduled.
  • Message and data rates may apply. Those charges come from your mobile carrier, not from us.
  • For help, reply HELP to any message, call us at (708) 726-4536, or email ifeanyi@vitaltouch.care.
  • To stop, reply STOP to any message. We will send one confirmation and nothing further. Reply START to begin receiving messages again.
  • You can also ask us to stop during any phone call, or by email.

Mobile carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. The program is available to mobile numbers in the United States, and not all carriers or handsets support every message type.

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Your mobile number, SMS opt-in, and messaging consent data are never sold, rented, or shared. See our Privacy Policy for how we handle your information.
