Aledade is excited to share that we have broken ground on our new collaborative, event-oriented workplace where our remote-first teams can gather in-person for retreats, meetings and discussions. We recently let co-founders Farzad Mostashari and Mat Kendall take the first swing to start construction! Aledaders nationwide are excited to come together in our new Bethesda HQ starting in Spring of 2025.
Aledade's Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are thriving staff-led groups where Aledaders come together around a shared identity, experience or social cause. Earlier this month, ERG co-leads, executive sponsors, and E&I ambassadors celebrated how our ERGs helped us advance our mission and live our values of inclusion and belonging over the past year.
Aledade is proud to share our inaugural Public Benefit Report, "Doing More Good Together," highlighting progress towards our mission of creating a health care system that is good for patients, practices and society.

Dive into the report to see how we're making an impact!
Aledade team members attended the Florida Association of ACOs (FLAACOs) fall conference last week, where Travis Broome, senior vice president of Policy & Economics, spoke about different ACO models including Primary Care Flex, MSSP and REACH, and Market President Andrew Chang moderated a panel of ACO clinicians. This event brings together not only ACOs, but any organization interested in value-based care models.
Aledade is excited to share that three of our partner practices have been named as a 2024 Million Hearts Hypertension Control Champion. This recognition given by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention awards practices that prioritize controlling hypertension and are delivering lifesaving care by helping 80% or more of their patients with hypertension get their blood pressure under control. Congratulations to Mainline Health Systems, Inc. in Arkansas, Milford Primary Care Associates in Delaware and Brevard Health Center in Florida!
To mark #NationalRuralHealthDay, we are recognizing the hard work of all of our partners in rural parts of the country who are succeeding in value-based care, including Keystone Rural Health Consortia in Emporium, PA. Of the more than 1,900 practices that Aledade serves, 24% are in rural areas.

2023's MSSP results just announced by Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services show that Aledade accountable care organizations (ACOs) delivered a record $801 million in savings, more than any other accountable care partner in the entire country. Our partner practices earned more shared savings and higher quality scores than non-Aledade entities, with 93% of Aledade partners earning shared savings, compared to just 69% of others.
Aledade is honoring National Pharmacy Week, and recognizes the outstanding work of Erin James, PharmD and Nisha Parekh, PharmD (shown here after presenting at Aledade's Virginia CHC Summit), and the entire team of pharmacy professionals that support efforts to improve patient outcomes through medication adherence and more. Their dedication, innovation, and commitment to supporting our primary care practices is remarkable.
