EVERY MOMENT COUNTS
WHEN FACING A
LIFE-LIMITING MEDICAL
CONDITION
EVERYONE deserves an experienced
advocate who seeks to understand what is
most important to you, who works to ensure
that every decision you make will be an
informed decision, and who recognizes that
every moment we have counts.
In the midst of so much new information
and specialty physician appointments,
patients may lose connectivity to their
primary care physician and care
coordination becomes a challenge.
Pain and symptoms related to treatment
increase the frequency of emergency
room visits and hospitalizations (many of
which may be completely unnecessary).
PROBLEM:
Existing Care Support Models are Failing the Sickest Individuals
The healthcare system is challenged to
meet the needs of patients with life-limiting
conditions. Providers often become
pre-occupied with medical facts and
treatment options, losing sight of individual
patient goals.
Pain and symptom management
Understand the costs of various
treatment options and manage
unecessary costs
To relieve any burden for their
families and family caregivers
A sense of control for the decisions
about their treatment and care
Avoid inappropriately prolonging the
dying process

NARUS HEALTH’S SOLUTION
A Technology Enabled, Community-Based Care Partner
Technology Enabled. Using technology,
the Narus Health triage process ensures that
the patients who are most in need of
palliative and care support are identified and
engaged.
Community-Based. An in-home
comprehensive assessment identifies the
qualitative issues (called Care Domains) that
impact the patient’s overall course of care.
These issues, coupled with a clear
understanding of the patient’s individual
goals and the physician’s overall care plan,
form the basis of the day-to-day interaction
between the Narus Health field team and the
patient.
Care Partner. Our interactions support the
patient’s physician(s) – and complement the
physician’s office visits with day-to-day
patient interaction and insight, helping avoid
complications, unwarranted emergency
room visits and unnecessary hospitalizations.
The Narus Health team also provides
support to the family and the patient’s care
giver (often a family member), so that the
patient’s support system is both informed
and engaged in the care process.
There are 5 elements of Narus
Health’s services that deliver
significant value to the patient, the
physician and to our payer partners:
1. Group Stratification and
Program Triage
2. Patient Engagement and
Program Enrollment
3. Patient Assessment using Care
Domains
4. Sharing Findings with
Physicians & Supporting the

PHASE 1.
Group Stratification and Program Triage
Using pre-authorization data, emergency department visit data, hospital admissions and medical claims data, Narus Health uses a proprietary
set of case selection “rules” (that are vetted with the health plan) to ensure that the most appropriate cases are identified for enrollment. This
process may also be used by our health plan partners to identify and select cases for enrollment in other care support or disease specific
programs.
5
PHASE 2.
Patient Engagement and Program Enrollment
Once the right group of eligible patients are
identified (using the program triage filters)
the Narus Health Enrollment Team engages
each patient to explain our service (a benefit
offered by their health plan or employer) and
schedules an in-home (or on-site) visit with a
highly trained Narus Health Nurse Care
Partner.
This engagement process ensures that the
right patients are enrolled in the program,
and the value of the service is properly
described. Most recently diagnosed patients
have a myriad of questions; they are looking
for support; and they are seeking
clarification about "next steps."
The individuals we select for care
coordination services have at least two of
the following characteristics:
• High annual claims cost (average >
$50,000 per annum)
• Significant primary diagnosis: CA,
ALS, CHF, CAD, COPD, Kidney or
Liver Failure
• Multiple, severe co-morbidities
• Prognosis of progressive and
eventually fatal disease
• Multiple providers of care
• Significant pain and symptom
management issues
6
The Narus Health Team will complete an
in-home, personal assessment of the
patient, structured around Care Domains.
These Domains are qualitative drivers of the
patient’s overall engagement and are highly
predictive of future costs and complications.
These 7 areas of assessment include:
Knowledge & Choice
We confirm the patient's current knowledge
about their diagnosis and treatment choices.
If issues are identified, we collaborate with
their physician(s) to address the issues, so
the patient's anxiety is reduced, and they
have both knowledge and insight.
Pain & Symptom Management
We identify any discomfort, pain or other
symptoms. We ensure the symptoms are
carefully monitored and addressed
immediately. Pain, nausea, shortness of
breath and anxiety are the top reasons
patients visit emergency departments, most
of those visits are unnecessary with careful
daily monitoring and support.
Family & Community Support
We evaluate each patient's social and family
support system. Is there a caregiver
present? Are there transportation needs?
Issues within these support structures, if not
addressed, may disrupt treatment and can
lead to unnecessary complications.
PHASE 3:
Patient Assessment using Care Domains
7
Treatment Plan Support
A new, significant diagnosis can often
disrupt the continuity of care for patients
with underlying chronic diseases. Our team
provides a consistent, day-to-day support
system for the patient, ensuring that all of
the various providers (primary care physician
and specialists) are kept informed and have
full visibility of the patient's situation and
treatment plan. If the patient does not have
a primary care physician, we work with
the attending specialist and the health
plan to address non-specialty related
issues that arise.
Delivery System Access
Depending on where the patient lives, having
access to expert providers, urgent care,
hospitals, medical technology, experimental
therapies and support organizations may be
limited. We identify these barriers and work
with the physician and health plan to
address them.
Patient Goals and Terminal Care Planning
The Narus Health Team encourages each
patient to define their personal goals. Goal
setting empowers patients, guides
advanced directives and offers insights for
making informed terminal care decisions.
Benefit Coverage
We help each patient have insight into levels
of coverage available through their plan,
options provided and alternative choices
within their benefits plan. Also, Narus Health
helps patients think about funding and
support when specific services or selected
experimental options are not covered in their
benefit plan.
8
A complement to the clinical evaluations
provided by various physicians for the
individual patient, Narus Health’s evaluation
of the patient’s Care Domains delivers
valuable insight to the practitioner.
As each of the individual’s Care Domains are
evaluated, a list of open issues is created
within the Narus Health engagement plan.
Each issue requires a specific goal and a set
of actions that will mitigate the issue and
achieve the goal. Issues, Goals and Actions
are all set with specific target dates, and a
measurable outcome is recorded.
This methodology of documenting the
patient’s Issues and Goals, identifying
planned Actions, and desired Outcomes is a
powerful way to communicate meaningful
information to the attending physician,
specialty physicians, and the health plan
leadership.
The Narus Health Nurse Care Partners are
trained in systematic care processes and
receive specific training in palliative care. The
company further invests in these individuals
by helping each become fully CCM (Complex
Care Management) certified.

the right individuals are enrolled in our programs
2. SERVICE ADVANTAGE
The structured assessment and management of Care Domains using an
IGAO framework affords us the opportunity to share meaningful, new
information for the physicians overseeing the patient’s care.
3. CONSUMER ADVANTAGE
Our mobile framework encourages patient and family interaction
and ensures that the Narus Health care manager is always

13
PATIENT ACUITY AND PAYER BILLING PROCESS
Using mutually agreed upon diagnostic
categories, severity ranking, and IGAO
assessment, a patient acuity is assigned
that defines both the level of support
required and the fee charged to provide that
month’s support.
Using this methodology, the health plan and
Narus Health are afforded the opportunity to
define consistently the resource need of the
individual patient through a transparent and
verifiable process.
The Narus Health algorithm is dynamic,
adjusting as needed each time new data is
captured, either from the health plan or from
a Narus Health care partner. The patient’s
acuity, for purposes of both support and
billing, are then periodically adjusted as their
need for support changes.
The health plan and/or employer is billed
each month for Narus Health’s services
based on the level of service received by the
patient.

The Narus Health program covers patients
who are defined in the “Top 1%” for the
health plan in terms of total costs. Most of
these patients have more than $50,000 in
annual costs with either a significant primary
diagnosis (CA, ALS, MS, CHF, CAD, COPD,
Organ Failure, Trauma) or they have multiple,
severe co-morbidities with significant pain
and symptom management issues.
A high-opportunity starting point for many
health plans are the patients with late stage
Cancers – due to the significant costs of
complications, frequent emergency
department visits and hospital admissions.

SAMPLE PATIENT JOURNEY: Patient with lung cancer
Within each of the treatment phases, the patient will encounter multiple providers. Should they elect to participate in a clinical trial, the number
of specialty providers only increases. This journey can feel overwhelming to a patient. Simply trying to navigate the appointment schedule is
challenging. The Narus Health Care Team provides a consistent, day-to-day support system for the patient, ensuring that all of the various
providers (primary care physician and specialists) are kept informed and have full visibility of the patient's situation.

NARUS HEALTH
A Sample Opportunity
Our founder has been a pioneer in the care
management and support space for over 20
years. Using a combination of technology
and expert services, we can make a
significant positive impact on the lives of
patients and families dealing with life-
limiting illnesses. Through a thoughtful
assessment of the patient’s Care Domains,
we deliver valuable insight to the patient’s
physician and overall care team. These
insights directly impact the patient’s total
cost of care while ensuring an exceptional
care experience.
The opportunity to reduce unwarranted ER
visits and admissions is significant. Most of
these are a result of pain, nausea, shortness
of breath or anxiety that occur either after
hours or when there is no one available to
support the patient and immediately
respond to their concerns.

  • 3. WHEN FACING A LIFE-LIMITING MEDICAL CONDITION EVERYONE deserves an experienced advocate who seeks to understand what is most important to you, who works to ensure that every decision you make will be an informed decision, and who recognizes that every moment we have counts.
  • 4. In the midst of so much new information and specialty physician appointments, patients may lose connectivity to their primary care physician and care coordination becomes a challenge. Pain and symptoms related to treatment increase the frequency of emergency room visits and hospitalizations (many of which may be completely unnecessary). PROBLEM: Existing Care Support Models are Failing the Sickest Individuals The healthcare system is challenged to meet the needs of patients with life-limiting conditions. Providers often become pre-occupied with medical facts and treatment options, losing sight of individual patient goals. Pain and symptom management Understand the costs of various treatment options and manage unecessary costs To relieve any burden for their families and family caregivers A sense of control for the decisions about their treatment and care Avoid inappropriately prolonging the dying process Narus Health Advantage: 2

  • 6. NARUS HEALTH’S SOLUTION A Technology Enabled, Community-Based Care Partner Technology Enabled. Using technology, the Narus Health triage process ensures that the patients who are most in need of palliative and care support are identified and engaged. Community-Based. An in-home comprehensive assessment identifies the qualitative issues (called Care Domains) that impact the patient’s overall course of care. These issues, coupled with a clear understanding of the patient’s individual goals and the physician’s overall care plan, form the basis of the day-to-day interaction between the Narus Health field team and the patient. Care Partner. Our interactions support the patient’s physician(s) – and complement the physician’s office visits with day-to-day patient interaction and insight, helping avoid complications, unwarranted emergency room visits and unnecessary hospitalizations. The Narus Health team also provides support to the family and the patient’s care giver (often a family member), so that the patient’s support system is both informed and engaged in the care process. There are 5 elements of Narus Health’s services that deliver significant value to the patient, the physician and to our payer partners: 1. Group Stratification and Program Triage 2. Patient Engagement and Program Enrollment 3. Patient Assessment using Care Domains 4. Sharing Findings with Physicians & Supporting the Physician's Treatment Plan 5. Ongoing Care Support 4

Group Stratification and Program Triage Using pre-authorization data, emergency department visit data, hospital admissions and medical claims data, Narus Health uses a proprietary set of case selection “rules” (that are vetted with the health plan) to ensure that the most appropriate cases are identified for enrollment. This process may also be used by our health plan partners to identify and select cases for enrollment in other care support or disease specific programs. 5
  • 8. PHASE 2. Patient Engagement and Program Enrollment Once the right group of eligible patients are identified (using the program triage filters) the Narus Health Enrollment Team engages each patient to explain our service (a benefit offered by their health plan or employer) and schedules an in-home (or on-site) visit with a highly trained Narus Health Nurse Care Partner. This engagement process ensures that the right patients are enrolled in the program, and the value of the service is properly described. Most recently diagnosed patients have a myriad of questions; they are looking for support; and they are seeking clarification about "next steps." The individuals we select for care coordination services have at least two of the following characteristics: • High annual claims cost (average > $50,000 per annum) • Significant primary diagnosis: CA, ALS, CHF, CAD, COPD, Kidney or Liver Failure • Multiple, severe co-morbidities • Prognosis of progressive and eventually fatal disease • Multiple providers of care • Significant pain and symptom management issues 6
  • 9. The Narus Health Team will complete an in-home, personal assessment of the patient, structured around Care Domains. These Domains are qualitative drivers of the patient’s overall engagement and are highly predictive of future costs and complications. These 7 areas of assessment include: Knowledge & Choice We confirm the patient's current knowledge about their diagnosis and treatment choices. If issues are identified, we collaborate with their physician(s) to address the issues, so the patient's anxiety is reduced, and they have both knowledge and insight. Pain & Symptom Management We identify any discomfort, pain or other symptoms. We ensure the symptoms are carefully monitored and addressed immediately. Pain, nausea, shortness of breath and anxiety are the top reasons patients visit emergency departments, most of those visits are unnecessary with careful daily monitoring and support. Family & Community Support We evaluate each patient's social and family support system. Is there a caregiver present? Are there transportation needs? Issues within these support structures, if not addressed, may disrupt treatment and can lead to unnecessary complications. PHASE 3: Patient Assessment using Care Domains 7
  • 10. Treatment Plan Support A new, significant diagnosis can often disrupt the continuity of care for patients with underlying chronic diseases. Our team provides a consistent, day-to-day support system for the patient, ensuring that all of the various providers (primary care physician and specialists) are kept informed and have full visibility of the patient's situation and treatment plan. If the patient does not have a primary care physician, we work with the attending specialist and the health plan to address non-specialty related issues that arise. Delivery System Access Depending on where the patient lives, having access to expert providers, urgent care, hospitals, medical technology, experimental therapies and support organizations may be limited. We identify these barriers and work with the physician and health plan to address them. Patient Goals and Terminal Care Planning The Narus Health Team encourages each patient to define their personal goals. Goal setting empowers patients, guides advanced directives and offers insights for making informed terminal care decisions. Benefit Coverage We help each patient have insight into levels of coverage available through their plan, options provided and alternative choices within their benefits plan. Also, Narus Health helps patients think about funding and support when specific services or selected experimental options are not covered in their benefit plan. 8
  • 11. A complement to the clinical evaluations provided by various physicians for the individual patient, Narus Health’s evaluation of the patient’s Care Domains delivers valuable insight to the practitioner. As each of the individual’s Care Domains are evaluated, a list of open issues is created within the Narus Health engagement plan. Each issue requires a specific goal and a set of actions that will mitigate the issue and achieve the goal. Issues, Goals and Actions are all set with specific target dates, and a measurable outcome is recorded. This methodology of documenting the patient’s Issues and Goals, identifying planned Actions, and desired Outcomes is a powerful way to communicate meaningful information to the attending physician, specialty physicians, and the health plan leadership. The Narus Health Nurse Care Partners are trained in systematic care processes and receive specific training in palliative care. The company further invests in these individuals by helping each become fully CCM (Complex Care Management) certified. PHASE 4: Sharing Findings with Physicians & IGAO Development 9

  • 15. PATIENT ACUITY AND PAYER BILLING PROCESS Using mutually agreed upon diagnostic categories, severity ranking, and IGAO assessment, a patient acuity is assigned that defines both the level of support required and the fee charged to provide that month’s support. Using this methodology, the health plan and Narus Health are afforded the opportunity to define consistently the resource need of the individual patient through a transparent and verifiable process. The Narus Health algorithm is dynamic, adjusting as needed each time new data is captured, either from the health plan or from a Narus Health care partner. The patient’s acuity, for purposes of both support and billing, are then periodically adjusted as their need for support changes. The health plan and/or employer is billed each month for Narus Health’s services based on the level of service received by the patient. 5 4 3 2 1 Primary and Secondary Diagnoses Comorbidities Narus Assessment IGAO Specific Chemotherapy Regimens Social Support ESAS Hospitalization or ER Visit High Low Service Levels: 14

Most of these patients have more than $50,000 in annual costs with either a significant primary diagnosis (CA, ALS, MS, CHF, CAD, COPD, Organ Failure, Trauma) or they have multiple, severe co-morbidities with significant pain and symptom management issues. A high-opportunity starting point for many health plans are the patients with late stage Cancers – due to the significant costs of complications, frequent emergency department visits and hospital admissions. 15

NARUS HEALTH A Sample Opportunity Our founder has been a pioneer in the care management and support space for over 20 years. Using a combination of technology and expert services, we can make a significant positive impact on the lives of patients and families dealing with life- limiting illnesses. Through a thoughtful assessment of the patient’s Care Domains, we deliver valuable insight to the patient’s physician and overall care team. These insights directly impact the patient’s total cost of care while ensuring an exceptional care experience. The opportunity to reduce unwarranted ER visits and admissions is significant. Most of these are a result of pain, nausea, shortness of breath or anxiety that occur either after hours or when there is no one available to support the patient and immediately respond to their concerns. 16
