Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about medical alert systems in Mississippi and Louisiana.

How does a medical alert system work?
A medical alert system includes a wearable pendant or wristband with a button that connects to a 24/7 monitoring center. When pressed, a trained operator speaks with you through a two-way speaker, assesses the situation, and dispatches emergency services if needed. Some systems also include automatic fall detection.
Does Medicare cover medical alert systems?
Traditional Medicare does not cover medical alert systems. However, some Medicare Advantage plans and Medicaid waiver programs in Mississippi may provide coverage. Berkley Security offers affordable monthly monitoring plans that make medical alerts accessible regardless of insurance coverage.
What is fall detection and how does it work?
Fall detection uses an accelerometer sensor in the medical alert pendant to detect sudden changes in motion consistent with a fall. If detected, the system automatically contacts the monitoring center even if the wearer cannot press the button. This is especially important for seniors living alone.
Can a medical alert system work outside the home?
Yes, mobile medical alert systems use cellular and GPS technology to work anywhere with cellular coverage. Seniors are protected while shopping, walking, or traveling. Berkley Security offers both in-home and mobile medical alert options.
How much does a medical alert system cost?
Medical alert systems typically cost between $20 and $45 per month for monitoring, with equipment costs ranging from $0 to $199 depending on the system type. Berkley Security integrates medical alerts with existing security systems, which can reduce overall costs.
