AmeriHealth Caritas Ohio, a managed care organization slated to begin serving Ohio Medicaid enrollees in early 2023 and part of the AmeriHealth Caritas Family of Companies, announced that it has expanded its provider network across Ohio as it prepares to begin serving the state. AmeriHealth Caritas Ohio and the following large health systems recently signed agreements to allow health plan members to receive care from their affiliated hospitals, physicians, and other providers:

  • Mercy Health, which includes 23 hospitals and 600 total points of care across Ohio and northern Kentucky.
  • Summa Health, an integrated health care delivery system serving northeast Ohio, with three acute care hospitals, a rehab hospital, and 15 clinics.
  • The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, an academic medical center with six acute care hospitals and ranked nationally by U.S. News & World Report in nine specialty areas.1

“As we get ready to begin serving Ohioans under the Next Generation of Ohio Medicaid Managed Care, our top priority has been to provide our members with the higher level of service they want from this new program. Building a strong, comprehensive provider network is at the heart of that effort,” said AmeriHealth Caritas Ohio Market President Mark Grippi. “We are proud to team up with these accomplished health systems to give Ohioans access to the quality care they deserve.”
