What You Should Know:
– MDwise and Cityblock Health, the first tech-driven healthcare provider for communities with complex health and social needs announced that they will be collaborating to provide high-quality, comprehensive care to 10,000 Medicaid members at launch in select Indiana communities, including Indianapolis.
– As part of this strategic collaboration, Cityblock will open comprehensive care clinics to provide care services for these individuals, addressing physical health, behavioral health and social determinants of health in one place.
Value-Based, Community Care Model
Cityblock delivers medical care, behavioral health, and social services to individuals from historically underserved and marginalized communities, in particular those with complex needs. This personalized care includes 24/7 access to multi-modal care delivery, with doctors and other clinical and non-clinical caregivers treating patients in their homes and community settings, via telehealth or at local Cityblock hubs. Cityblock’s members in existing markets have experienced meaningful reductions in emergency department visits and inpatient admissions, and overall improvements in engagement.
“MDwise is excited to partner with Cityblock to bring their innovative value-based approach and proven outcomes to Indiana,” said Jessica Cromer, President and CEO of MDwise. “Our most vulnerable members can be the hardest to reach, but we will be relentless in providing our members access to great healthcare to improve their health outcomes and quality of life.”
