The company’s peer-to-peer programs, overseen by community leaders, aim to connect beneficiaries eligible for Medicare and Medicaid with preventive care education and routine engagement with healthcare providers. The partnership aligns with Wider Circle’s goal of expanding services nationwide to support healthcare partners in reducing costs and improving quality of care.
