A care system uses sensors and a gateway to collect activity or health information of a home user and reports the information to a service that provides the information to the home user and authorized remote users. A motion sensor can sense an activity level of the home user, e.g., indicating the amount of motion per minute, and reports the motion data periodically at a reporting period selected to provide manageable data rates. A pillbox sensor can sense and report use of medication by the home user. The service that provides data can employ a business method that sells care systems and separate sensors, licenses interfaces that enable use of sensors in a care system, sells Internet advertisements on web pages that contain the health data, and sells enhanced service, e.g., higher data collection frequencies, to remote users.
