Shaping Policy That Supports Aging at Home
Every Older Adult Deserves to Age Safely, Independently and with Dignity
Our Mission
At MAMA, we believe aging in place should be a right—not a privilege. Every older adult deserves to live safely, independently, and with dignity in their own home.
We’re committed to making life-saving technologies and supportive services accessible to all, regardless of income or insurance coverage.
That’s why we advocate for expanded public and private reimbursement of personal emergency response systems (PERS), remote monitoring, and other essential tools that make aging in place possible.

Our Legislative Focus
We are actively engaged on Capitol Hill and in statehouses across the country, advocating for policies that reflect the evolving needs of our aging population.
With every conversation, every piece of legislation, and every letter sent to lawmakers, we’re working to make independent living safer and more affordable for millions of Americans.
Expand Coverage
We advocate for expanded reimbursement and the inclusion of medical alert and remote care services in Medicare, Medicaid, and other public health programs—ensuring that aging-in-place solutions are fully recognized and funded as essential care.
Regulatory Simplification
Working to reduce outdated regulations that slow innovation in home-based care. Supporting streamlined policies that allow providers to deliver services more efficiently and at scale.
Innovation Investment
Pushing for federal and state funding that accelerates adoption of connected care technologies. Championing legislation that drives advancement in PERS, RPM, and digital health infrastructure.
Equity in Access
Ensuring fair and consistent access to home-based care across all communities. Supporting policy that eliminates barriers for underserved, rural, and diverse populations.
Every Policy Affects a Person
Behind every policy decision are real people—older adults striving to stay independent, caregivers supporting loved ones, and providers delivering essential care. These are the voices that drive our mission.
At MAMA, we spotlight the individuals, families, and companies working every day to make aging in place safe, dignified, and accessible.
