CHARLESTON, SC – Liberty Doctors, a leading independent primary care physician group in South Carolina, is revolutionizing senior healthcare with its innovative Freedom Senior Care Advantage program. This initiative embraces a value-based care model, positioning Liberty Doctors at the forefront of patient-centered healthcare. By prioritizing quality over quantity, Liberty Doctors aims to enhance the healthcare experience for senior patients across the state.
The Freedom Senior Care Advantage program is the result of a strategic partnership between Liberty Doctors and agilon health, a national leader in empowering physician-led healthcare transformation. This collaboration accelerates the shift towards value-based care, often referred to as a “total care” model. In this model, physicians are incentivized to focus on the holistic well-being of their patients, rather than simply treating individual ailments. This approach allows Liberty Doctors’ physicians to dedicate more time to each patient, fostering stronger doctor-patient relationships and delivering more effective and cost-efficient care.
“Liberty Doctors is proud to be at the forefront of value-based care, a transformative approach reshaping healthcare delivery in the United States,” stated Lissa Lara, CEO of Liberty Doctors. “Our commitment to value-based care is central to our mission of establishing the independent physician practice model of the future. We strive to transform healthcare within our communities and, most importantly, improve the lives of our patients. Freedom Senior Care Advantage embodies this commitment and builds upon the exceptional care that Liberty Doctors is known for.”
Steve Sell, Chief Executive Officer of agilon health, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership: “We are thrilled to welcome Liberty Doctors to the agilon health network. This partnership will empower Liberty Doctors to expand and strengthen the delivery of value-based primary care to their senior patient population throughout South Carolina.”
The Freedom Senior Care Advantage program is accessible to Liberty Doctors patients as they become eligible for Medicare or are enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan through the practice. It’s important to note that this program is not a health plan itself, and Liberty Doctors continues to collaborate with various health plans within their service areas to ensure comprehensive patient access. Patients interested in learning more about Freedom Senior Care Advantage are encouraged to contact Liberty Doctors directly.
