Since 1993, CareMore and its founder, CareMore Medical Group, Inc., have been successful in delivering quality care to the Medicare population. CareMore’s only line of business is Medicare Advantage HMO, and its plans are uniquely designed for the frail elderly. We place a strong emphasis on early detection and identification of chronic conditions and co-morbidities and implement preventive and maintenance health care services that help to keep beneficiaries healthy, detect diseases at an early stage, and work to avoid preventable illnesses. CareMore joined the Anthem family of plans in 2011.

The CareMore Model

Page 8: REDESIGNING CARE FOR THOSE WHO NEED IT MOST…. Since 1993, CareMore and its founder, CareMore Medical Group, Inc., have been successful in delivering quality

Chronic Diseases are Generally Managed Poorly

Patients receive appropriate care only half of the time (EA McGlynn et al)

Diabetic complications could be cut 90% with best care and involved patients (Center for Disease Control and Prevention), yet

• Diabetes related admissions have risen from 3.5 to 6.5 million since 1993 (Dept. HHS)

• Low income diabetics are 80% more likely to be hospitalized (Dept. HHS)

Second heart attacks can be reduced 40% (J.R. Jowers)

More doctors involved in care decreases information exchange and leads to unnecessary hospitalizations (Wennberg/Dartmouth)

But...

• Patients with serious conditions see 11 different doctors

CareMore addresses these problems directly
