New Partnership Aims to Improve Community Health

Spartanburg, SC – In an equitable move aimed at improving health coverage, Spartanburg Regional Healthcare System has announced a partnership with Humana Healthy Horizons to offer in-network Medicaid services. This collaborative effort is intended to give Humana Healthy Horizons members not merely in-network access to Spartanburg Regional’s hospitals, facilities, and affiliated physicians, but dedicated care and attention from the medical organization.

By pairing their efforts, Spartanburg Regional and Humana Healthy Horizons confront local health disparities head-on, focusing their attention on improving the overall health of the historically underserved Spartanburg community. The development comes as part of a broader trend promoting healthcare equity and making quality health services more accessible and affordable.

A Win-Win for Both Organizations and the Community

This partnership represents an exciting development for both organizations and the potential to greatly impact local health.

He foresees a community where everyone has in-network access to healthcare facilities, despite their socio-economic status.

An Expanded Provider Options for All

“Through our collaboration with Spartanburg Regional, we’re expanding provider options for the people we serve,” Williams declared when talking about the upcoming improvements in Medicaid services. This partnership alignens with the mission of both organizations to build and sustain healthy communities by providing comprehensive and accessible healthcare options.

The introduction of these Medicaid services is a direct response to the community’s healthcare necessities. Still, it is also a proactive strategy to curb health issues before they escalate into chronic or life-threatening illnesses. It is not just about providing coverage – it’s about ensuring a healthier tomorrow for Spartanburg and its residents.

This new Medicaid option with Humana Healthy Horizons allows for a broader range of services and expanded provider options, making it a pivotal turning point in accessing healthcare for many uninsured or underinsured individuals in Spartanburg.
