Humana is accelerating into primary care by expanding its chain of clinics serving Medicare patients into more markets.
The payer in May said it expected to operate about 250 clinics, under the CenterWell and Conviva Care Solutions brands, by the end of 2022. The total is up from 214 as of March, including 37 through its partnership with Welsh Carson and 177 wholly owned centers.
Humana expects to boost its total number of clinics by 30 to 50 per year through 2025, with up to 15 to 25 being added through acquisitions, Diamond said. The remaining about 30 per year will be added through joint ventures with Welsh Carson.
