Freed Associates News
March 2024 Edition

Over the past 20 years, progress in several key areas of healthcare quality has been slow: linking healthcare payments to outcomes, emphasizing preventative care, and taking a whole-patient approach to health. In 2022, the CalAIM initiative began reforming California healthcare in an effort to take patient-centered health to the next level by further integrating care for Medi-Cal enrollees with social services. Now, entering year three of this initiative, our consultants and clients have been hard at work implementing a series of key reforms.

In this newsletter, give you a chance to hear how one healthcare organization is achieving CalAIM success. We’ll also share how Managed Care Plans can maximize the benefits of working with their community-based partners. And we’ll tell you how we helped one client save $21.4 million in just one year through enhanced care coordination.

In addition to these insightful resources, I have some company news to share. I’m very proud and grateful to announce that Freed Associates has once again been recognized as a Great Place to Work. We put a lot into maintaining a values-driven culture that supports our employees so that they, in turn, can take care of our clients. Thank you to our employees for your commitment and dedication.

Best,

Dava Freed
Founder and CEO
