BOSTON, Aug. 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Iora Primary Care today announced the opening of five practices in North Carolina providing high quality primary care to older adults on Medicare. The locations will open in Fall 2019 with two sites in Charlotte and three in the Triad (Winston-Salem, Greensboro and High Point).

Iora Primary Care has a proven track record of transforming care for older adults on Medicare. Building off of its success in seven states across the country, Iora's five new practices will change everything about care, ultimately improving the lives of patients while lowering overall healthcare costs.

"We are thrilled to enter North Carolina, a state that leads innovation in many sectors of our economy, with our own innovative way of caring for members of the community. We know that when you invest in relationships and support patients beyond the traditional expectations of primary care, people stay healthier and lead happier lives. Right now, Medicare eligibles in North Carolina, like patients around the country, are in need of the time, attention and quality care that we provide," said Rushika Fernandopulle, MD, MPP, co-founder and CEO of Iora.
