Healthcare concierge service TouchCare today shared the results of its most successful year to date, in which the company doubled its revenue for the second consecutive year, tripled its number of members, and saw an unprecedented 153 percent jump in the amount of users within its member base taking advantage of its services. Throughout the COVID-19 healthcare crisis, consumers of healthcare have turned overwhelmingly to TouchCare’s concierge services for guidance on how to use their healthcare benefits.
