[March 17, 2025] –Curana Health, the largest provider of senior living primary care services in the country, is pleased to announce a new partnership with American House, a leading national senior living company. This collaboration will bring comprehensive, in-residence healthcare services to seniors in 11 communities across Tennessee.
“By partnering with Curana Health, American House is taking a transformative step toward enhancing the quality of care and support we provide to our residents,” said Alex Germain-Robin, Chief Operating Officer for American House Senior Living Communities. “Together, we are dedicated to fostering a caring environment that prioritizes the well-being of each individual, ensuring better outcomes, improved health, and a more compassionate approach to senior living.”
Through this collaboration, Curana’s physician-led care teams will offer residents a wide range of concierge-style medical services within their residences, including:
- Routine preventive primary care
- Appointments for illnesses
- 24/7 access to clinical support
- Care coordination and arrangement of specialty appointments
- Ongoing management of chronic conditions
- Medication review and reconciliation
- Coordination of on-site phlebotomy and imaging services
“We’re honored to collaborate with American House on this important endeavor,” said Tara Jones, DNP, ACNP-BC, ANP-BC, PNP, Vice President of Operations for Curana Health. “On-site and personalized healthcare services are a game changer for seniors, and our clinicians look forward to supporting American House’s residents and helping them remain within the vibrant communities they know and love.”
Residents can utilize Curana Health’s care team for primary care or secondary care, which allows individuals to continue seeing their established primary care provider for routine healthcare needs. Visits and services are covered by the patient’s health insurance and are billed by Curana.
Additionally, American House will participate in Curana Health’s Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP) Accountable Care Organization (ACO), which offers senior living and skilled nursing operators, who support care coordination efforts, opportunities for shared savings. This further reinforces the mutual goal of improving outcomes and helps maintain residents’ health and independence.
Curana Health’s emphasis on a value-driven approach to care has consistently led to positive results among its partners, with some experiencing 39% reduction in hospital readmissions, 30% fall reduction, 39% fewer instances of polypharmacy (when a patient takes or is prescribed more medications than clinically required), and/or 95% resident satisfaction.
