agilon health

agilon health, founded in 2016, works with primary-care physician groups in the United States to move their Medicare patients from fee-for-service to value-based care. The company provides capital, data, payor relationships, executive experience and contract support, allowing practices to take on total-cost-of-care risk while remaining independent. Through its partnerships, agilon health serves approximately 650,000 Medicare patients across 12 states.

The company's offering rests on two components. The agilon platform and partnership model integrates the elements of a global risk business model into a single arrangement that equips physician groups to assume responsibility for the total cost of care. The Total Care Model builds on this by uniting physicians in a network of like-minded leaders while preserving local practice autonomy, with the aim of managing total care for vulnerable patients.

agilon health's technical work spans healthcare data analytics, its value-based care platform and risk-based care management. The stated orientation is long-term partnership with physician groups, rewarding improvements in outcomes rather than volume of services. The company operates within the healthcare, senior care and primary-care sectors, and its partnerships sit at the intersection of payers and providers in the Medicare market.
