Aledade builds a nationwide network and support system for independent primary care practices. It helps these practices succeed by combining on-the-ground support with a data-driven technology platform that gives timely patient insights. Practices join the network through a subscription or service model to access the network, ongoing support, and the proprietary app, which analyzes patient data to improve care quality. What sets Aledade apart is its status as the largest network serving independent PCPs, focused on providing practical data and operational help rather than owning clinics. Its goal is to help independent practices thrive in a changing healthcare landscape by delivering the tools and insights they need to deliver high-quality care to their communities.

↑ 0%ACU partnering with Aledade to support Value-Based Care for community health centers. The Association of Clinicians for the Underserved (ACU) is partnering with Aledade, a physician-led public benefit corporation and national leader in value-based care, to help community health centers (CHCs) and clinicians caring for medically underserved communities to implement sustainable value-based care strategies that strengthen patient care and the financial health of their organizations. Through this collaboration, ACU and Aledade will equip CHCs with practical solutions, data, and hands-on support to translate value-based care into better outcomes for patients and more predictable revenue for safety-net practices. "ACU is thrilled to partner with Aledade to help our network understand, navigate, and maximize the extensive opportunities that exist in value-based care," said Amanda Pears Kelly, ACU Chief Executive Officer. "In the current environment, doing everything possible to improve patient outcomes and keep every dollar possible within the health center is more critical than ever before. Aledade's leadership in value-based care and data-driven support for providers has proven itself time and again, ensuring that health centers can remain focused on what they do best, innovating while staying focused on mission and the people they serve to deliver accessible, high-quality care to millions of patients." ACU's mission is to build a robust, effective workforce that can transform communities and increase access to quality care for all. As CHCs and clinicians navigate complex payment models, workforce shortages, and rising patient needs, value-based care can offer a path to sustainability - but often requires infrastructure, analytics, and contracting support that many safety-net organizations do not have in-house. This new partnership is designed to close that gap by pairing ACU's national network and technical assistance with Aledade's experience in value-based care. Aledade is a physician-led, national leader in value-based care, empowering clinicians with advanced analytics, AI-enhanced tools, and dedicated support to improve patient health, grow thriving primary care organizations, and share in the rewards of better care. Through its accountable care organizations (ACOs), over 3,000 primary care partners* in 46 states and the District of Columbia* share in the rewards of improved care for more than three million patients*, supported by actionable insights, AI-driven technology, personal coaching, policy expertise, and more than 200 value-based contracts. Aledade works across myriad care settings, including more than 370 community health centers* - over 60% of which are in health professional shortage areas* - reflecting a strong commitment to improving access to high-quality care in underserved communities. For ACU members, this partnership will create a structured pathway into value-based care that keeps clinicians and CHC leaders at the center of decision-making. Through Aledade-supported ACOs, CHCs and other safety-net practices can access value-based contracts, while gaining the benefit of a shared infrastructure built specifically for primary care organizations. This collaboration will help CHCs maintain their presence in communities that rely on them and generate sustainable revenue by keeping people healthy, offering ACU members the chance to tap into Aledade's tailored value-based care support, including: * Opportunities to participate in Aledade-supported ACOs and value-based contracts that reward better care and lower costs. * Actionable insights and performance analytics that turn complex information into practical workflows for care teams. * AI-enhanced solutions that help identify and reach patients most at risk of avoidable hospitalizations and emergency department visits. * Dedicated coaching and practice support to guide CHCs through every stage of value-based care adoption - from early planning and contracting to performance improvement and reinvestment in care delivery. The partnership will also feature targeted education and technical assistance for ACU's national community. Aledade experts recently joined ACU to offer an on-demand webinar, "Leveraging Value-Based Care and ACOs to Strengthen CHCs," exploring how clinicians and CHC leaders can evaluate value-based opportunities, align care teams, and operationalize new workflows without compromising access or mission. Additional educational offerings, including a workshop on value-based innovation to scale hypertension control and a unique awards ceremony honoring emerging leaders at ACU's 2026 Conference, will help CHCs translate what they learn into concrete action plans for their own organizations. ACU and Aledade share a common vision of a health care system that is good for patients, good for practices, and good for society. By combining ACU's longstanding commitment to clinicians caring underserved communities with Aledade's experience in value-based care, this alliance will help CHCs and other safety-net organizations move from surviving to thriving - so they can invest in their teams, expand services and deliver comprehensive, patient-centered care in the communities that need it most.
