Cherish Health pricing
A consumer price exists in launch coverage rather than on the company's site.
How Cherish Health pricing works
- Pricing model
- Hardware purchase plus a recurring subscription per device, evidenced on the consumer side and unstated for enterprise. The device is bought outright and a monthly subscription sustains the service, with the subscribing unit being the device rather than the person, which matters because one unit is claimed to cover multiple rooms and multiple people. Whether facilities are charged per device, per room, per resident or per building is unstated, as is whether cellular connectivity is bundled into the subscription or billed by the carrier.
- Implementation
- Not published by the company, and in practice set by installing security dealers for consumers. For facility deployments nothing is published on site survey, device placement or commissioning, which is where the cost of a multi room deployment would sit.
- Business associate agreement
- Not published. The privacy policy covers the hardware and care solutions without stating HIPAA or business associate status. A consumer buying through a security dealer sits outside HIPAA, where protection is what the privacy policy grants; a nursing home deployment may sit inside it; nothing distinguishes the two. Whether the company signs agreements with facility operators is not stated.
Coverage of the January 2024 launch reported roughly $250 to $300 for the device with a subscription of $39 per month, which gives a family both the capital cost and the running cost.
Three things weaken it. The numbers are over two years old against a product that has since gained an enterprise hub, and no current rate card is published. Distribution runs through security dealers, so the price a buyer pays is set by an installing dealer, and installation, activation and monitoring charges layered by that dealer are invisible from outside. And connectivity is cellular by default, with nothing stating whether the subscription includes it.
Enterprise pricing is absent. Facility deployments run through an Enterprise Hub distributed by Alarm.com's service providers, and nothing indicates whether a nursing home is charged per device, per room, per resident or per building. The economic argument for ambient radar is that one unit covers several rooms, and without a stated device count per unit of floor area a facility cannot compare it against alternatives on cost.
