The EliHealth Initiative, a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving women's health, has launched to eliminate financial and access barriers for underserved women. Many women—particularly in disadvantaged communities—delay seeking treatment for pelvic health conditions until symptoms worsen, leading to reduced quality of life, higher healthcare costs, and more complex care needs. EliHealth aims to reach these women earlier providing affordable, life-changing solutions to restore health, dignity, and confidence.
The EliHealth Initiative will focus on urinary incontinence, one of the most prevalent yet under-addressed women’s health issues, impacting 1 in 3 women. While advanced, FDA-cleared treatments like Elitone are covered under Medicare and some insurance plans, high deductibles, copays, and out-of-pocket costs often prevent women from accessing care. Women resort to decreased activity, intimacy avoidance, poor sleep, increased urinary tract infections, and costly management with pads.
EliHealth tackles this challenge by providing assistance to access insurance coverage for women in need and distributing Elitone devices. Rather than simply managing symptoms, Elitone treats the root cause of incontinence with an easy, non-invasive, at-home solution that fits into women’s lives.
"Our mission is simple: to ensure that financial barriers don't stand in the way of better health," said Gloria Kolb, a director of EliHealth. "We address incontinence because of its prevalence and its ability to deeply impact daily life, but the goal is deeper: to restore dignity and confidence, empowering women to reclaim active, fulfilling lives."
By providing treatment, the organization is committed to making a meaningful impact. It aims to support women like Sara L. who wrote, “I am a 34-year-old mother of four. I have severe pelvic floor dysfunction and other chronic health conditions that I struggle with. Unfortunately, there is not enough money to even make payments on the device. I ask if there is any program for an Elitone that might allow me the chance to overcome these issues that significantly impact my quality of life.”
Women's health shouldn’t be a privilege, it’s a basic necessity. Yet, for too many women, necessary healthcare products remain out of reach. Elihealth Initiative is changing that.
