The Issue

Urinary incontinence is one of the most prevalent yet under-addressed women’s health issues, impacting 1 in 3 women. The condition leads to significant physical, emotional, and financial burdens costing the U.S. healthcare system $25 billion annually, with untreated cases worsening over time. Women resort to decreased activity, intimacy avoidance, poor sleep, increased urinary tract infections, and costly management with pads.

Clinical care is often costly with surgery, expensive medications, and time-consuming office visits. Although FDA-cleared treatments like Elitone are more affordable and are covered by Medicare, high deductibles, copays, and out-of-pocket costs often prevent women from accessing care.

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.

Our Mission

The EliHealth Initiative aims to improve women’s health, via access to life-changing pelvic floor treatment to the underserved. With ongoing partnerships, we aim to provide impactful solutions by:

  1. Expanding pelvic health education
  2. Supporting access to insurance coverage (telehealth or copay costs)
  3. Refurbishing Elitone devices under strict ISO13485 medical quality controls and providing new GelPads

EliHealth Initiative is seeking charitable contributions and Elitone product donations to help expand access to pelvic health treatment for women in need.

We aim 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.”

Expanding Access to Treatment

For women facing urinary incontinence, treatment options may include pelvic floor therapy and FDA-cleared technologies that can be used at home. Elitone® is one example of a non-invasive, at-home treatment option that EliHealth Initiative can help make more accessible.

By helping women understand available treatment options, insurance coverage and assistance resources, EliHealth Initiative works to reduce financial barriers that can prevent women from receiving care.

“At 51 years old, I was not ready to stop living. All my doctor would say is do your kegels, but I was not getting better. I don’t need surgery to get my life back. Hooray, I found Elitone!!! Now every time I sneeze, cough and laugh I am not afraid.” – Nancy
