Carolina Complete Health Network

Physician-governed Medicaid and government-sponsored care plan

Overview

Carolina Complete Health Network provides government-sponsored health coverage in North Carolina through a provider-led, managed care model for Medicaid, Medicare, and Marketplace plans. It coordinates medical, behavioral health, and pharmacy benefits under state contracts, guided by physician governance and data-driven, outcomes-based care; Tailored Plans serve members with complex behavioral health needs or intellectual/developmental disabilities. After merging with WellCare of North Carolina, it became the state’s largest Medicaid plan, offering value-added services addressing social determinants of health and facilitating care transitions with limited out-of-network access when needed. Its goal is to improve health outcomes while controlling costs and expand statewide access through coordinated, physician-guided care.
