CareNu is redefining wholistic-focused healthcare by leveraging data analytics and artificial intelligence technology to deliver high-quality, in-home care for patients with complex chronic illnesses. Focused on value-based care, CareNu is dedicated to ensuring better patient outcomes while reducing costs. Leveraging more than 30 years of experience in caring for patients (who are considered members), CareNu navigates and partners with them on their journey through chronic illness.

Through its subsidiary ASSURITY DCE, CareNu is a key player in ACO REACH, which is a value-based model by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services promoting health equity for Medicare beneficiaries. As one of the original six high-needs direct contracting entities, ASSURITY DCE has transformed care for more than 2,000 patients, utilizing a unique Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) assessment tool to drive personalized, proactive care. Its initiatives led to a 43-percent reduction in emergency room visits and a 55-percent decrease in avoidable hospitalizations.

These key performance indicators demonstrate the success of care coordination strategies and a shift toward preventive, initiative-taking care management. By leveraging predictive analytics and real-time data modeling, ASSURITY DCE also achieved a 37% reduction in healthcare costs, optimizing resource utilization while maintaining high-quality patient outcomes.

CareNu recently expanded into the Medicare Advantage market with the launch of its subsidiary SECUR, as a niche Institutional Special Needs Plan (I-SNP) in select Florida counties. This Medicare Advantage plan offers Part D drug coverage, dental, hearing, an over-the-counter allowance, and transportation, thus offering beneficiaries a comprehensive health plan. By addressing critical gaps in healthcare access, SECUR exemplifies a commitment to enhancing care for individuals with complex needs and advanced chronic illnesses.

By integrating AI-driven analytics with a patient-centered approach, CareNu enhances preventive care, streamlines resources, and elevates healthcare equity. Its holistic model empowers multidisciplinary teams — including physicians, nurses, and case managers — to deliver treatment plans tailored to individual patient needs. Focusing on proactive care coordination ensures that patients receive timely interventions, thereby reducing hospital readmissions and improving overall health outcomes. By prioritizing equity, cost-efficiency, and wholistic-focused care, CareNu is revolutionizing the future of healthcare.
