SwingHealth is a patient-centered managed care organization whose mission is to partner with leading providers and coordinate the best care for our patients’ needs ‘pulling together’ to achieve the best outcome. We are solely focused on improving patient care and experience by empowering our physician partners with new real-time point of care data, patient engagement services, network design and management, and an innovative reimbursement program within a holistic delivery model.
SwingHealth contracts with Medicare as a Direct Contracting Entity to manage the full global payment allocated by CMS for each patient. Our focus is to provide primary care physicians greater ownership in the care of their patients - giving them greater opportunity for autonomy and increased compensation by:
