Regence and Aledade will work together to provide tools, resources, coaching and support, and data sharing to rural and independent primary care providers starting Jan. 1, 2021. This relationship will enable more effective care management - including a focus on individuals with chronic conditions - while transitioning these providers from a system of being paid for volume to one where they are paid for better outcomes.
