Primaria, a joint venture of VillageMD and Community Health Network, is a newly formed management services organization announced Sept 1, 2015. Primaria has emerged as the solution for engaged and appropriately incentivized primary care providers—the foundation to a healthier population. Controlling illnesses, reducing costly duplication, preventing medication interaction, providing a safe environment, ensuring patient and family education, arranging for provider follow-up, and avoiding preventable readmission is enabled through a bold system of innovative coordination and communication. Providers are at ease assuming risk because they are supported by Primaria’s powerful human resources, care coordination model, and vital patient data tools. Information is delivered and explained in an actionable and easy to understand format so they can engage, educate, and enable healthier Indiana communities. High and rising risk patients are easily identified so the right care can occur in the most appropriate setting before a person experiences a health crisis.
