Oak Street Health to Enter Alabama and Kentucky<\/b><\/p>\n

Value-Based Primary Care Leader Extends Presence to 16th State this Summer<\/i><\/p>\n

CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–Oak Street Health<\/a>, Inc. (NYSE: OSH, or the \u201cCompany\u201d), a network of value-based primary care centers for adults on Medicare, today announced its plans to enter Alabama and Kentucky, bringing its innovative model of care to thousands of new older adults. The Company will open centers in Birmingham and Mobile, and Louisville, respectively, this summer and fall, increasing the number of states with Oak Street Health centers to 16.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe expansion follows Oak Street Health\u2019s first center openings in Louisiana and South Carolina in March and the previously announced entry into Georgia this summer. Oak Street Health has already opened 7 new centers this year, and anticipates opening 38-42 new centers in total by the end of 2021.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe innovative care that Oak Street Health provides older adults will remain as critical after the pandemic as it was before,\u201d said Mike Pykosz, Chief Executive Officer of Oak Street Health. \u201cCOVID-19 has certainly amplified the need for higher-quality preventive care, and we will continue working to ensure that it is available and accessible to seniors across the country. Our national expansion is a testament to our entire team who is deeply committed to our mission of rebuilding healthcare as it should be and positively impacting communities all across the country by improving health outcomes.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nOak Street Health patients can expect an unmatched healthcare experience that includes quality time with their provider in-person or via telehealth visits; a 24\/7 patient support line; individualized, preventive care plans; and access to transportation to and from the center for eligible patients. Additional services, such as behavioral health care and social health support and Medicare education classes, are also offered to help older adults meet their unique needs in one convenient location.\n<\/p>\n

\nSince its founding in 2012, Oak Street Health has driven an approximately 51% reduction in patient hospital admissions compared to Medicare benchmarks, a 42% reduction in 30-day readmission rates and a 51% reduction in emergency department visits, all while maintaining a Net Promoter Score of 90 across patients.
