Your healthspan journey
starts here
Continuous care for seniors
Physician-led healthspan management that helps you understand your health, manage risk and protect your independence, from pre-retirement (50+) to long-term care.
A healthspan management company for seniors
Whether you are a senior, a pre-retiree (50+) or helping a parent, Monarch Health coordinates physician-led home care and nursing. We are not a family practice, and MSP-insured care from an independent physician stays separate from your membership.
How it works
Step 1: Assess
A yearly baseline assessment across
12 categories of health.Step 2: Recommend
Our team reads your results together and recommends a level of care. You choose, and we tell you plainly if a choice is below what we recommend.
Step 3: Care
The right level of care and services, such as nursing, home care, occupational therapy, physiotherapy and foot care, in one plan.
From a snapshot to a strategy to independence.
Your health changes throughout the year, and throughout your life.
Lifespan is not healthspan
Lifespan is how long you live. Healthspan is how well you live.
Monarch helps seniors and pre-retirees (50+) understand and manage the factors
that influence their healthspan over time.
Lifespan measures the years you live. Healthspan describes the years you spend in good health, with the physical, cognitive and functional capacity to remain independent and engaged in what matters to you.
Through personalized assessment, practical care planning and ongoing reassessment, we help you make informed decisions about your health and track whether those decisions are making a meaningful difference.
Membership Options
What your membership covers for seniors and pre-retirees (50+)
MSP-insured care stays separate. Where an independent physician provides an MSP-insured service, it is separate from Monarch and from your membership.
No preferential access. Membership does not provide priority, expedited or preferential access to MSP-insured services.
Your information. With your consent, we share relevant information with your family doctor and other providers to support coordination of care.
Fees for any Monarch service are shared with you in writing before you begin.
Knowing your health is not the same as managing it.
An annual physical can tell seniors and pre-retirees (50+) a great deal about their health today.
But what happens afterwards?
Your family doctor looks after your insured care. Monarch adds what an annual physical can’t: a plan built around your goals, follow-through on every recommendation, and someone watching your trajectory over time.
Monarch was built around what happens next.
Your healthspan plan doesn’t end with your results.
The assessment tells us where you are.
Membership gives us the relationship to help seniors and pre-retirees (50+) manage where they are going.
A clear plan
Understand your most important health risks, priorities and opportunities.
A coordinated approach
Turn findings into next steps with your existing providers, with your consent.
Follow-through
Track agreed actions and identify where further review or support is needed.
Progress over time
Reassess key measures, review what has changed and adapt your plan.
The goal is not to measure everything. It is to understand what matters, act on it and determine whether the action is helping.
Our Method to Independence
Your assessment is built around your age, history, risks, goals, and what will meaningfully change your care.
We don’t simply tell you what your results are.
We help seniors and pre-retirees (50+) understand how their health is changing over time:
What matters. What to change. Whether it worked. And what to do next.
12 Pillars of Healthspan
We measure what matters to seniors and pre-retirees (50+).
Your assessment is individualized to your age, health, goals and clinical needs. Investigations are chosen according to individual risk, clinical appropriateness, the evidence and shared decision-making.

We look beyond disease.
Good healthcare isn’t only about finding what’s wrong.
It’s also about understanding what allows you to continue living the life you want. For seniors and pre-retirees (50+), that means protecting your independence.
Designed to complement your existing healthcare team
Monarch focuses on proactive healthspan assessment, planning and monitoring for seniors and pre-retirees (50+), working with your existing healthcare providers, with your consent, to support continuity of care.
Monarch membership does not replace access to MSP-insured medical services. If you do not have a family doctor, we can discuss available options for finding ongoing primary care.

The goal isn’t simply to live longer. It’s to live well for longer.
To stay strong. To keep moving. To think clearly. To remain independent.
To continue doing the things that matter to you, at 50+ and beyond.
That’s Continuous Care for Life.
Don’t wait for a health problem to become your health plan.
Start by understanding where you are today.
Then build the care seniors and pre-retirees (50+) need for the years ahead.

The measurement you take twice
A single result tells you where you are. Only the second one tells you which way you are going, and that is the reading worth acting on.

Ageing Well
Muscle is the reserve you spend later
Strength is rarely what brings someone to a doctor, and it is often what decides how the next twenty years go. What we look at, and why we look early.
