In a new agreement, Interwell Health will provide care to Humana Medicare Advantage HMO and PPO members with chronic kidney disease in 13 states. It will also serve patients with end-stage kidney disease across the country.
Here is a selection of recent executive hires, exits, promotions and layoffs occurring across the healthcare industry.
Oak Street Health teamed up with kidney care management company Interwell Health to create a joint venture called OakWell, which seeks to provide primary care to end-stage kidney disease patients directly in existing dialysis centers. End stage kidney disease patients spend upwards of 12 hours per week in dialysis centers — OakWell is meant to eliminate the barrier of attending separate, additional medical appointments.
The new organization combining InterWell, Fresenius Health Partners and Cricket Health is valued at $2.4 billion with a total addressable market of $170 billion, more than $6 billion of medical costs under management, and over 100,000 covered lives, according to the combined company.
