Oak Street Health, a network of value-based primary care centers for adults on Medicare, is now welcoming patients at a center at 2850 E. Main St. Suite No. 106 in Mesa.
It is Oak Street Health’s second center in Arizona.
The company plans to open additional new centers throughout the greater Phoenix area and Tucson in 2022, according to a release.
“We are thrilled to open our East Mesa center and begin delivering an unmatched patient experience and improving health outcomes for older adults in the community,” Dr. Patrick Vinck, regional medical director at Oak Street Health, said in the release. “At Oak Street Health, we are committed to providing the highest quality care to meet the individual needs of our patients and we are excited to bring our innovative healthcare model to the area.”
Oak Street Health delivers personalized and preventive care through a model that was created to meet the unique needs of older adults who face chronic illnesses. The integrated model incorporates behavioral health care and social determinants support and is easily accessible through a mix of in-center, in-home and telehealth appointments, as well as a 24⁄7 patient support line.
Oak Street Health has driven an approximately 51% reduction in patient hospital admissions compared to Medicare benchmarks, a 42% reduction in 30-day readmission rates and a 51% reduction in emergency department visits, all while maintaining a Net Promoter Score of 90 across patients. Oak Street Health hires employees from the neighborhoods where centers operate and invests resources to make a positive impact in the communities it serves, the release states.
Oak Street Health accepts all forms of Medicare, including Original Medicare Part B, select Medicare Advantage plans, Medicare Supplement or Medigap plans and Medicare-Medicaid Plans. Interested patients can visit oakstreethealth.com/locations/arizona/mesa/east-mesa-health-clinic to learn more.
