BrightStar Care Franchise Disclosure Document

BrightStar Care is a national home healthcare franchise offering both skilled medical care and non-medical personal care. Founded in 2002 and based in Illinois, the brand has grown to hundreds of units across the U.S. The business is designed to serve clients ranging from seniors to post-operative patients, generating revenue through insurance reimbursement, private pay, and Medicaid. The model is more complex than typical in-home care franchises due to medical licensure and staffing needs but offers higher revenue potential. Franchisees benefit from operational systems built to manage compliance and scale.

With nearly 40,000 FDDs collected over the past 25+ years, our growing database is maintained and enriched by a dedicated information management team that ensures accuracy, completeness, and timely updates. Just as important, FRANdata understands that while FDDs offer a wealth of standardized information, they may not address every question a stakeholder has—particularly when it comes to franchise performance, operational nuances, or long-term growth potential. That's why we complement the information in FDDs with broader research and advisory capabilities, helping clients interpret what's there, understand the context, and access deeper insights when needed.
