BALTIMORE, July 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- AbsoluteCare, a leader in value-based health care, has announced a partnership with Zing Health to support Chronic Special Needs Plan (C-SNP) members and other Medicare Advantage members in Chicago, IL, Akron, OH, and Cleveland, OH.
AbsoluteCare brings a whole-person approach to care that goes Beyond Medicine™ to address social determinants of health (SDoH) in addition to integrated medical and behavioral health care for members living with chronic conditions, like COPD, heart disease, CKD, diabetes and more.
Zing Health works to address inadequacies in the healthcare system by creating collaborative, community-based Medicare Advantage plans, and is leading the industry in offering innovative C-SNP plans to dramatically improve health outcomes of those with chronic conditions, including diabetes, chronic heart failure, and chronic kidney disease.
"We're thrilled to collaborate with Zing Health to wrap our whole-person care around their members with long-term health conditions," stated Mike Radu, CEO of AbsoluteCare. "When we address SDoH needs along with medical and behavioral needs, clinical outcomes follow – including reduced avoidable hospitalizations."
AbsoluteCare's services encompass primary care, pharmacy, behavioral health care, and advanced urgent care. Built into their care model is a process to identify and provide the right resources at the right time to meaningfully impact an individual, including employed social workers who address social drivers of health so their clinical teams can focus on medical needs. Over the past year, one in four AbsoluteCare members have received social work support.
"At Zing Health, we are committed to delivering personalized, innovative care that puts our members first," stated Andrew Clifton, CEO of Zing Health. "By partnering with AbsoluteCare, we are expanding our ability to provide a holistic support system—one that ensures our members and their primary care providers remain at the center while also connecting them to specialized care teams, behavioral health clinicians, and essential community resources."
AbsoluteCare meets members where they're at, engaging with them in their comprehensive care centers, at the bedside in community hospitals and facilities, and delivering care directly to members at home. Together, Zing Health and AbsoluteCare will work to redefine health care with concierge-level service and a deep understanding of each individual's needs.
