Receive care from someone you trust, or let us find someone for you.

Family, friends, and neighbors can get paid to provide care.

CareLinx by Sharecare helps Veterans receive in-home care through the VA Community Care Network, whether from a trusted family member, friend, neighbor, or a fully vetted, professional caregiver from our network. Veterans can choose the care option that works best for them, while we handle onboarding, training, payments, and VA claims so care can begin quickly and safely. To date, more than $22 million has been paid to Veteran families through the VA Community Care Network.

A trusted provider in the VA Community Care Network

CareLinx currently supports Veterans through VA Medical Centers affiliated with Optum's Community Care Network for non-medical, in-home care and is actively working to expand services nationwide to support the TriWest's Community Care Network.

Flexible care, built around the Veteran

Veterans can choose to receive care from someone they already trust, such as an adult family member or friend, or be matched with a vetted caregiver from the CareLinx network.

CareLinx provides full support including background checks, training, timesheet management, pay, and VA claims submission, so Veterans and caregivers can focus on what matters most: care, dignity, and independence.

When traditional home care falls short

Many Veterans face long wait times or limited caregiver availability, especially in rural and underserved communities.

CareLinx provides a faster, more flexible solution by enabling trusted caregivers or vetted professionals to deliver care.

Voices from Veterans, their caregivers & families:
in their own words

“

Please keep doing what you are doing. What you're doing is so critically important and so very needed in this world. You are amazing—and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to help us through this journey.”

“

It really made life just a bit easier, and at times I didn’t think that would be possible. It’s crazy how help can change a person’s world. ”

“

Because of this care, I can stay home with my husband during palliative care instead of taking a job outside the home. It’s given me peace of mind and the ability to focus on being there for him. ”

“

This program has been such a good thing. We've been doing good, but thanks to this program, we're doing even better! ”

“

I was paying my neighbor out of pocket because she was helping me for free. It was a financial strain, but now she’s my paid caregiver. This program has been a great, big, happy change in my life. ”

“

My loved ones and I appreciate the ongoing support from CareLinx. I plan to keep using this service—and I plan to recommend it to others. ”
