Univita Health of Scottsdale, Ariz., a provider of home-based care management, announced last week the acquisition of All-Med Services of Florida, an integrated provider of home-based care for 1 million people.
The acquisition means Univita will now support more than 5 million people through its comprehensive approach for coordinating and managing care for health plan members, including the most complex and chronically ill.
“Our unique home-based care management model that is based on the integration of home care and complex care management continues to demonstrate transformational value for health plans and other payers,” Hugh Lytle, president and chief executive officer of Univita, said in a prepared release. “The addition of All-Med will allow us to expand that model, and grow into new geographical markets, even more quickly and effectively.”
Since its creation in 1987, All-Med has partnered with major health plans as a single point of contact for managing all home care services, including skilled nursing, infusion pharmacy, durable medical equipment and respiratory services.
