Multi-site primary and specialty care network
Esssen Health Care is a multi-site, integrated healthcare network in New York that delivers primary, urgent, and specialty care, as well as house calls, care management, and nursing home staffing. It serves underserved communities and uses a population health model with value-based payments, including an Accountable Care Organization (ACO). Its EssenMED House Calls program brings primary care and selected specialties directly to patients’ homes, making care more accessible. The network operates across the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens with over 350 providers and ties in remote patient monitoring and employer health services. A key differentiator is its home-based care delivery and its program to hire and train international medical graduates to enter the U.S. healthcare system. Its goal is to improve access to high-quality care for Medicaid populations and other underserved patients while controlling costs through coordinated, preventive care and chronic disease management.
