Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. Announces Definitive Agreement to Acquire Assets of Community Family Care Medical Group IPA, Inc. and Health Plan

  

ALHAMBRA, Calif., Nov. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. ("ApolloMed," and together with its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, the "Company") (NASDAQ: AMEH), a leading physician-centric, technology-powered healthcare company focused on enabling providers in the successful delivery of value-based care, today announced that it and its affiliated professional entity have entered into a definitive agreement to acquire assets relating to Community Family Care Medical Group IPA, Inc. (“CFC”), including the CFC independent physician association (“IPA”), the CFC Health Plan (“HP”) and CFC’s management services organization (“MSO”) entities.

 

 

 

CFC’s scaled provider group, with more than 350 primary care physicians and 500 specialists on platform, manages the healthcare of over 200,000 members in the Los Angeles, California area. The group serves patients across Medicare, Medicaid, and Commercial payers. CFC, which became an ApolloMed Care Enablement client in 2020, has a Restricted Knox Keene (“RKK”) license for Medicaid members, and will seamlessly integrate as an ApolloMed Care Partner as it continues to utilize our Care Enablement platform.

 

Brandon Sim, Co-CEO of ApolloMed, stated, “We’re incredibly excited to announce our acquisition of CFC, a scaled, unique network of mission-driven providers with a long track record of strong performance, especially in the Medicaid market in Los Angeles. We believe that pairing CFC’s impressive track record and clinical capabilities with ApolloMed’s scaled value-based care platform will result in even better outcomes for those we serve. We also anticipate that CFC’s demonstrated ability to take full risk successfully in Medicaid with its RKK license will allow us to increase our ability to manage a person’s total health across our entire Medicaid business. Importantly, this acquisition of an existing client shows the value and synergy of leveraging both our Care Enablement and Care Partners business segments, transitioning from a vendor-client relationship into one in which we are responsible for the total cost of care of their scaled membership base in a de-risked and accretive manner. We believe that our partnership with CFC and its providers demonstrates our deep commitment to delivering accessible, high-quality, and high-value healthcare to local communities across Los Angeles.”

 

Dr. Accie Mitchell, CEO of CFC, commented, “We are pleased to strengthen our existing relationship with ApolloMed through this transaction, which is a natural progression towards the continued growth and success of CFC. Leveraging ApolloMed’s Care Enablement solution has empowered our physicians to deliver better care and enabled the company to deliver a multi-year, growing track record of profitability while managing Medicaid populations under value-based care contracts. We are incredibly excited for the next chapter of CFC’s growth and success in serving those who most need it across Los Angeles and beyond.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

For 2023, CFC as a whole is expected to generate approximately $190 million in revenue. CFC’s adjusted EBITDA for the full year is expected to be approximately $25 million, reflecting a margin of approximately 13%.
