Vera Whole Health Launches First-Ever Dedicated Primary Care Center for Laborers Union Local 872 Members in Las Vegas

Partnership bridges Las Vegas's healthcare gaps with a proven comprehensive healthcare model for whole-person care

LAS VEGAS, July 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Vera Whole Health yesterday celebrated the grand opening of its Laborers Health & Wellness Center, which is the first comprehensive primary care center exclusively serving members of the Laborers Union Local 872. The partnership between Vera Whole Health and the Laborers Union is a transformative step in providing access to high-quality, whole-person care for the 6,800 members of Local 872 and their families.

The care center, located at 7135 West Sahara Ave., Suite 100, in Las Vegas, is Vera Whole Health's second site in Las Vegas, bringing the total to three in Nevada.

"Our partnership with Vera is a game-changer. Our members get care that actually connects the dots – primary care, health coaching, physical therapy and other services that work together to drive better outcomes and fewer unnecessary referrals," said Tommy White, business manager and secretary treasurer of Laborers Union Local 872. "And with Vera's digital tools and clear, real-time data, we'll be able to immediately see the total cost savings. This is the kind of care unions should demand – smart, strategic and built for real results."

Access to quality healthcare is a priority for Local 872 and others. Nevada ranks 41 out of 50 states and District of Columbia, according to a Commonwealth Fund report, which noted that disparities in healthcare and wellness result from less insurance coverage and unequal access to care.

Vera Whole Health's expansion in partnership with Local 872 addresses a critical gap in the community. The new care center will offer an improved patient experience, including more time with their care teams; same- and next-day appointment availability, both virtual and in-person; and proactive health alerts that support better long-term outcomes. By partnering with Vera Whole Health, Local 872 can provide its members with truly personalized care.

"My family has been in Las Vegas for five generations, and for too long we've watched neighbors leave our city in search of better care. At Vera Whole Health, we're committed to delivering true value-based care that treats the whole person close to home," said Steven Albright, Vera Whole Health's market president. "While others are scaling back, we're accelerating because our community deserves better. We're ready to grow with partners, like Local 872, that share this vision."

The Vera Whole Health care model combines high-touch navigation and primary care with data-driven personalization that engage members and ensure they get the support they need, when and where they need it. Each member is surrounded by an integrated team of providers, behavioral health clinicians, care managers and health coaches, building trusted relationships that drive better health outcomes and cost savings for both the union and its members.
