Through agilon’s Senior Health Connect ACO, the two organizations will build on their collaboration to improve quality and patient outcomes, strengthen chronic disease management and deliver more coordinated care for Traditional Medicare beneficiaries across Tennessee

agilon health (NYSE: AGL), the trusted partner empowering physicians to transform health care in our communities, today announced the expansion of its partnership with The Jackson Clinic, which will join one of agilon’s Senior Health Connect Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs). The Jackson Clinic, one of Tennessee’s largest independent physician organizations, includes more than 130 providers representing 24 specialties and subspecialties at 13 locations serving nine counties in the Jackson area. In 2022, the clinic began a long-term partnership with agilon to transition to a full-risk, value-based care model currently supporting approximately 8,000 senior Medicare Advantage patients.

Now, The Jackson Clinic is joining agilon’s Senior Health Connect ACO and is expected to help reach approximately 9,000 more Traditional Medicare beneficiaries across the communities it serves. The ACO participates in the Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP) and is expected to provide The Jackson Clinic with additional support to deliver more coordinated, personalized, patient-centered care focused on prevention, earlier intervention and improving outcomes while reducing unnecessary healthcare spending.

agilon brings extensive experience supporting physicians through accountable care models. Since 2021, agilon’s ACOs have generated more than $510 million in gross savings, including $125 million in savings to the Medicare Trust Fund, demonstrating the ability to improve outcomes while reducing costs. In 2024, the most recent year for which quality data is available, agilon’s ACOs achieved an average quality score of 96%. Four of them earned perfect quality scores, and five were recognized as high performers for achieving exceptional results across all quality measures.

“We are honored to enter this next phase of our partnership with The Jackson Clinic through Senior Health Connect ACO and continue our shared work to help physicians improve care for seniors,” said Tim O’Rourke, chief executive officer of agilon health. “Accountable care is designed to help physicians look beyond a single visit and fully understand each patient’s needs. Together, we can place greater emphasis on prevention, earlier intervention and effective chronic disease management to improve care quality, health outcomes and the patient experience, making a meaningful difference for people and communities across Tennessee.”

Founded in 2016, agilon partners with more than 30 physician groups and health systems to help them succeed in full-risk, value-based care for Medicare Advantage and fee-for-service innovation models.

Through its next-generation technology and AI-enabled platforms, agilon transforms data from across the healthcare ecosystem into actionable insights that help physicians anticipate patient needs, intervene earlier and close care gaps. Specialized clinical pathways for chronic conditions such as heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and dementia further equip physicians to address complex patient needs and deliver more proactive, coordinated care at scale.

“We are deeply connected to the patients and communities we serve, and joining Senior Health Connect ACO will help us provide more personalized care for Medicare patients while preserving the local, physician-led approach that defines The Jackson Clinic,” said Nancy Utley, MD, chief quality officer at The Jackson Clinic. “With agilon’s technology, insights and operational support, we can identify patients’ needs earlier, help patients manage chronic conditions more effectively and make care easier to navigate. Just as importantly, care decisions remain between patients and the physicians who know them best.”

Building on a strong track record in ACO models, agilon health is well positioned to extend that momentum alongside its physician partners as accountable care evolves. The company's demonstrated success in driving quality outcomes and generating shared savings under ACO models provides a proven foundation as participating ACOs look to the future.

With its long-term care model, deep primary care relationships and infrastructure built for value-based performance, agilon and its ACO partners are poised to capture significant opportunities for continued growth and strong performance across ACO models. This continuity reflects agilon's enduring commitment to helping community physicians thrive in accountable care and improve outcomes for the seniors they serve.
