Aledade's $260 million financing round was led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, a new investor of the company. It also included participation from Venrock, Avidity Partners, OMERS Growth Equity and Fidelity Management and Research Company.
CareFirst's in-network practices will have access to support from Aledade’s specialists. This includes on-site coaching and regulatory and policy expertise. In addition, they’ll have access to Aledade’s population health management platform, which is integrated with more than 100 electronic health records.
Aledade — an independent primary care network focused on value-based care — struck a 10-year partnership with insurer Humana. Under the collaboration, Humana’s Medicare Advantage members will receive primary care from Aledade physicians using value-based arrangements.
By adding 450 primary care practices to its network, the company claims to be the largest network of independent primary care. In total, the company now works with more than 1,500 independent primary care practices and health centers and has more than 150 value-based contracts across Medicare, Medicare Advantage, Medicaid and commercial plans.
