Humana partners with BlackRock to manage CenterWell clinics
Humana has entered into a partnership with BlackRock to take over management of nearly 150 CenterWell Senior Primary Care clinics. This move replaces Humana’s previous joint ventures with Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe (WCAS). As part of the deal, BlackRock will acquire WCAS's equity stake in these ventures for approximately $2.8 billion. The partnership is expected to streamline operations and improve care delivery through a more centralized management structure under BlackRock’s oversight. This transition marks a significant shift from Humana’s prior investment strategy with private equity firm WCAS, signaling confidence in the long-term viability of the CenterWell clinics.
