Health4 is a clinically integrated healthcare delivery model co-owned by Ohio Health and The Medical Group of Ohio, both based in Columbus.
The new accountable care organization between Health4 and Humana includes value-based incentives tied to performance and is designed to bring better patient care coordination and more cost effective care to Humana members, according to the news release.
Under the terms of the agreement, Humana will offer plan designs built around the new ACO and Health4‘s 34-county network. The network is comprised of more than 2,300 physicians, according to the news release.
“With sophisticated integration among its broad geographic array of hospitals, physician offices and ancillary care delivery settings, Health4 is the ideal partner in central Ohio as we reshape the healthcare system to deliver a more patient-centered experience,” said Larry Costello, Humana’s president for senior markets in Ohio, in the news release.
