Cool-Net_App PageCareOptionsOnLine™ (COOL) — for you and your family

CareOptionsOnLine™ (COOL) isn’t just for the seniors in your life, even if your aging loved ones might benefit most from this helpful online application. COOL.net is for everyone. Its care-planning tools and resources cover children, adults, eldercare, caregivers — as well as your pets. Plus its benefits come at no cost to you.

Used by leading insurance companies to promote prevention, early detection and wellness since 1997, COOL is an innovative, cloud-based care resource that provides you and your family with information, document sets, tools and health care answers all in one convenient online location. The site promotes family health, and because it’s accessible from your computer or mobile device, it can save you money while making your life easier — anytime, anywhere.

What can you do with COOL?

  • Develop care guides for the entire family — conduct physical, cognitive, and home safety assessments
  • Create a Care-Alert® Emergency Identification form and card — document medical histories, prescriptions drugs taken, allergies, and more for each member of your family family
  • Estimate care costs anywhere in the U.S. — use exclusive calculators to estimate what care costs in various locations
  • Locate medical providers — look up medical facilities, physicians, and other care providers throughout the country
  • Search information about medical conditions and prescriptions — learn about specific medical conditions and treatment options
  • Search a resource knowledgebase — find low- or no-cost services, such as meal delivery or home-modification-assistance services and more
  • Find elder law attorneys and care managers — look up legal and care professionals throughout the country
  • Create legal documents — input information to create documents such as living wills, advance directives, and health care power of attorney documents

Plus, you can complete helpful checklists and assessments, read in-depth articles and play brain teaser games.

Here’s some other pretty COOL stuff:
