agilon health (NYSE: AGL), the trusted partner empowering physicians to transform health care in our communities, today announced that it has formed long-term partnerships with five new physician practices across the U.S. to enable their transition to a full-risk, value-based care model. Recognized leaders in their respective communities, the new partners include Graves Gilbert Clinic in Kentucky, Mankato Clinic in Minnesota, Springfield Clinic in Illinois, and Twin Cities Network in Minnesota, as well as an independent, multi-specialty practice in North Carolina to be named at a later date.

With these new partnerships, agilon’s Physician Network will grow to include over 3,000 primary care physicians who are delivering value-based care to more than 700,000 senior patients in 30+ communities. Additionally, agilon will enter the state of Illinois for the first time and expand its existing broad footprint in Kentucky, Minnesota and North Carolina.

“More leading physician practices want to join agilon health’s Physician Network and platform to be part of the movement toward value-based care,” said Steve Sell, chief executive officer, agilon health. “Our new partnerships with these five leading physician practices demonstrate the power of our growing Network, especially in communities where we operate today like Kentucky, Minnesota and North Carolina. Each of our new partners has built a strong reputation in their local community and we look forward to enriching the quality of care to their senior patients.”

By partnering with agilon, physician practices make a joint commitment to transform health care delivery by shifting to a value-based Total Care Model for their Medicare patients that improves outcomes and lowers cost. Established in 2016, agilon has deep expertise in full-risk, value-based care for Medicare Advantage and Fee-for-Service innovation models. Today, more than 30 physician groups and health systems are in long-term partnerships with agilon and have transitioned to full-risk for their Medicare patients through agilon’s technology-enabled platform.

“We are excited about this partnership with agilon health,” stated Jerry Roy, MD, Chair of the Graves Gilbert Clinic and 2025 agilon health partner. “Having a value-based care partner of this magnitude will be a significant lift for patient care and understanding how to help manage quality, access and value in our health care environment. This is a real game changer for primary care.”
