What curanahealthclinic.com does

Curana Health is a U.S.-based value-based care provider that embeds primary care clinical teams directly inside senior housing communities — including independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing and long-term care facilities (SNF/LTC), and continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs). The company serves seniors across 2,000+ communities in 34-43 states, supporting 200,000+ residents with on-site primary care, 24/7 provider access (in-person and virtual), preventive visits, complex condition management, care management, and polypharmacy reduction. Its go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting senior housing operators, with B2B partnerships under which Curana assumes clinical responsibility for residents in exchange for value-based care economics. The company also operates two Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) and Medicare Advantage Special Needs Plans, giving it direct financial alignment with patient outcomes and payer-side revenue exposure. Curana additionally offers a CMS- and ONC-compliant interoperability API that connects third-party applications to Medicare Advantage member data across multiple partner payers (e.g., AgeRight Advantage, Align Senior Care, PruittHealth Premier, NHC Advantage, Perennial Advantage). The company is privately held, has no public financials disclosed, and is led by Derek Chao, MD (President and Chief Medical Officer), a former CEO of Optum Health's western region.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• InnovAge Holding Corp. Public operator of PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) programs serving dual-eligible seniors in residential and community settings. Comparable on dual-eligible, senior-focused, risk-bearing care delivery with on-site clinical components.
• Aledade: Value-based care enablement company partnering with independent PCPs (including those serving seniors) to participate in ACOs and risk-bearing contracts. Adjacent to Curana's ACO operations and relevant as an alternative pathway for PCPs.

Broad incumbents

• Oak Street Health (CVS Health): Senior-focused value-based primary care operator owned by CVS Health, serving MA members in dedicated clinics often co-located near senior housing. Competes for the same MA member and operator relationships at national scale with deeper capital backing.
• CenterWell Senior Primary Care (Humana): Humana-owned senior-focused primary care network delivering value-based care to MA members, often co-located with senior housing and PACE programs. Largest scaled incumbent competitor for embedded senior care delivery.
• VillageMD (Walgreens Boots Alliance): Walgreens-owned primary care platform with senior-focused value-based care delivery through co-located clinics, including Summit Health/CityMD. Larger, broader portfolio competitor with overlapping senior MA value-based care capabilities.

Direct peers

• ChenMed: Privately held, family-owned senior primary care group operating value-based clinics for low-income seniors, including dual-eligible and senior-housing-adjacent populations. Closely comparable on risk-bearing, dual-eligible focus and senior-only patient mix.
• Agilon Health: Public value-based care platform partnering with PCPs to manage Medicare Advantage seniors in senior living and community settings, with risk-bearing contracts analogous to Curana's ACO/SNP structure. Directly comparable on payer mix and senior focus.
• Cano Health: Public value-based primary care company focused on seniors, primarily dual-eligibles, with embedded clinics in senior communities. Direct competitor on MA risk-bearing model and senior-housing channel.
• Visiting Physicians Association: House-call and on-site primary care provider for seniors in senior housing, SNF, and home settings, with risk-bearing arrangements. Closely comparable on embedded clinical care delivery model inside senior housing communities.
• Iora Health (One Medical / Amazon): Originally an independent senior-focused value-based primary care operator (acquired by One Medical, now Amazon), pioneering embedded clinics inside senior housing communities. Operationally highly comparable to Curana's embedded model.
