Centene Corporation

Having already partnered with Centene, one of the nation’s largest Medicaid Managed Care providers, ASA was uniquely positioned to guide them through the acquisition of Fidelis Care. Working closely with Department of Health regulatory and executive staff, the Department of Financial Services, the Office of the Attorney General, and key stakeholders in the state health insurance industry, the resulting transaction now places the lives of more than 1.5 million New Yorkers in Centene’s care. Guiding Centene through negotiations with the Division of Budget, ASA was instrumental in securing substantial funding from the sale to develop a shortfall fund, giving the state some financial security as we face instability in the ever-evolving healthcare delivery system and volatility in Washington. We were also proud to work with our partners at Fidelis Care in the creation of the Mother Cabrini Health Foundation, funded by this sale, that will continue to serve, statewide, the most vulnerable populations. ASA continues to work with Centene with policy and regulatory support as they establish themselves as the key player in New York State Medicaid.
