Serving America’s Seniors: Dawn Maroney and Hakan Kardes

October 24, 2023

The seniors of today look nothing like the seniors of the past – and their stories, health journeys, and needs for community and connection are all evolving. So too is their health care.


Dawn Maroney, president, markets, Alignment Health & CEO, Alignment Health Plan, and Hakan Kardes, chief technology & experience officer, Alignment Health, joined our Conversations in Care host Robert Traynham for a robust conversation on how we embrace the uniqueness of America’s seniors and develop creative ways to reach them with compassion and care under Medicare Advantage plans.


Watch to see how they’re making a difference through building clubs, bringing puppies to care facilities, hosting town halls to connect upwards of 11,000 seniors, offering free rides to dialysis, and sending cellphones to combat COVID loneliness.
