Medicare Advantage company Alignment Healthcare (NASDAQ: ALHC) today announced the addition of CareMore Health to its provider network in Arizona and Nevada starting Jan. 1, 2022, pending regulatory approvals. This agreement provides new and existing Alignment Health Plan members access to 3,350 CareMore providers, expanding Alignment’s care options for seniors during Medicare’s annual enrollment period for 2022, which runs Oct. 15 through Dec. 7, 2021.
“Joining forces with CareMore underscores our continued execution on our stated growth strategy, partnering with complementary providers across the country that share our senior-first philosophy,” said John Kao, founder and CEO, Alignment Healthcare. “When more seniors have access to top local providers that we can further support with our coordinated care model, the clinical outcomes are vastly improved, and we can transform the health care experience for seniors together.”
CareMore Health is a health care delivery system serving more than 160,000 patients across the country. In October, Medicare-eligible residents who enroll with Alignment’s HMO plans in Clark County, Nevada, and in Pima and Maricopa counties in Arizona will have access to all of CareMore’s services including primary care and care coordination, in addition to Alignment’s senior-focused benefits such as free non-emergency medical transportation, virtual fitness classes and 24/7 access to the company’s ACCESS On-Demand Concierge program.
Earlier this month, Alignment announced its expansion in both Arizona and Nevada, in addition to 12 other markets across the country in 2022. For more information, visit www.alignmenthealthcare.com.
