BOSTON, MA, Apr 29 (MARKET WIRE) --
Home Instead Senior Care of Massachusetts (www.homeinstead.com/ma) today
announced that Harvard Pilgrim Health Care has selected Home Instead to
provide elder care services as part of its Members Savings Plan. With 24
offices across the Bay State, New Hampshire and Maine, Home Instead
Senior Care works with seniors, their families and facilities to provide
a broad range of non-medical support services allowing elders to remain
safely in their own residence as long as they desire.

Through its Members Savings Plan, Harvard Pilgrim offers special savings
on many health-related products and services to its more than one million
members to promote healthy lifestyles and wellness. As part of this
program, Home Instead Senior Care offers subscribers and eligible family
members a one-time $100 credit toward charges for services at
participating offices and a free home-safety inspection ($75 value) at
the start-up of services.

Carefully screened, trained and insured, Home Instead Senior Care
caregivers do more than help with household duties, daily chores and
activities -- they help by establishing relationships with their clients,
and can add safety and peace of mind. For more than a decade, Home Instead
has been a trusted name in Massachusetts.

"What makes this a compelling benefit to our members is that this program
is available to eligible family members at the more than 567 Home Instead
Senior Care locations nationwide," said Vincent Capozzi, Senior Vice
president of Sales and Customer Service, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care.

"Harvard Pilgrim is a forward-looking organization, constantly improving
its offerings to its members. Working together with Harvard Pilgrim, we
can help keep seniors living where they want to be, in their homes,
without uprooting them," said Jack Cross, owner, Home Instead Senior Care
of Lexington.
