The Story Behind Koble Cares
A woman finishes her third round of chemotherapy. She is exhausted, frightened, and buried in medical bills she cannot pay. What she does not know is that the medical device implanted during her surgery was recalled two years ago, and that a process exists for her to explore her options. Her oncologist does not know either. There is no system in place to connect the two.
By the time she learns about the recall on her own, if she ever does, the filing window will have closed.
This happens thousands of times a day across the United States. Not because the resources do not exist, but because no one told her they were there. Koble Cares was built to break that silence.
About Koble Cares
Why We Exist
Serious illness carries a financial weight most people are not prepared for. Researchers call it financial toxicity, and the data is hard to read.
75% of cancer patients face financial hardship in the first year of treatment. $42,000+ average out-of-pocket cost in the year after diagnosis. 85% leave the workforce during treatment. 40%+ spend their entire life savings within two years.
For many of these patients, a pathway to financial recovery exists. The process is slow, and outcomes are never guaranteed. But the real tragedy is not the timeline. It is that most patients never learn they have the right to begin the process at all. The clock runs out before they know it started.
The reasons are structural. Patients are unaware that their condition may be linked to a defective product, a recalled device, or a toxic exposure. Physicians are ideally positioned to notice, but advocacy has never been part of clinical workflow, so there are no tools and no prompts. And the traditional alternative, the late-night television commercial, is built on a foundation of mistrust that patients are right to feel.
Koble Cares was created to close that gap.
About Koble Cares
A Smarter Approach to Patient Advocacy
Identifying patterns across a large patient population is not a failure of attention. It is a limit of time. Koble Cares applies machine learning and natural language processing to de-identified clinical data so that eligibility surfaces automatically, inside the EHR, without adding a step to anyone's day.
What the platform gives providers:
- Patient identification drawn from clinical data rather than self-reporting
- One-click notification sent under the practice's own name
- A single dashboard for eligibility, outreach, consent, and follow-up
- HIPAA-compliant data handling with a full audit trail
- Criteria that update continuously as new advocacy pathways open

What We Will and Will Not Promise
Technology is only part of the answer. Behind every data point is a person, a family, and a story that is still being written.
So we are careful about what we promise. The path to financial recovery is not instant. Cases can take months or years, and outcomes are never guaranteed. We will never tell a patient to expect a check.
What we can promise is that she will know. She will know that a product she was exposed to has been linked to harm. She will know that a process exists. And she will know because her own physician told her, not because of a television commercial she dismissed at midnight. For a patient who would otherwise have gone the rest of her life never knowing she had that right, knowing changes everything.
