Find a Provider on the Connected Care website. - Coordinated Care, Focused on You
With a patient-centered medical home approach, your care team is led by your primary care physician who collaborates with any specialty care providers, and uses various means of technology to support your care. They get to know you and strive for continuity of care. This approach is beneficial whether you’re managing a chronic condition or you’re healthy and simply aiming to stay well. - Concierge, at Your Service
The Connected Care Arizona Concierge is a one-stop resource to help you find a doctor who’s right for you and your family, answer questions about benefits and claims, verify eligibility, process ID card requests, and more. To talk to a Concierge (Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.), call 800.974.4517.
Who We Are
Arizona Care Network (ACN) is a group of doctors and other healthcare providers who work together to improve the health of our members and reduce costs by actively coordinating care for our patients. We commit to:
- Improve the health of our patients with quality care in the best care setting for their situation
- Enhance the patient experience because consumers have many choices and we must earn their business
- Manage the rising cost of care by working as a team, communicating effectively, and reducing costly duplication of services
- Increase provider satisfaction because our doctors and other care givers need to be healthy themselves to deliver good healthcare
This is our Quadruple Aim and everything we do is focused on improving in each of these four areas.
Connected Care is available in Oregon, Arizona, New Mexico, and Northern California and provides quality healthcare to more than 38,000 employees and their enrolled dependents. This represents 32% of Intel’s U.S. employees and their families with 94% satisfaction.
Supporting Your Health with Care Coordination
If you or a dependent are managing a chronic or complex illness, ACN is here to help. Our Care Coordination team works closely with your doctors and you to help manage your condition with the goal to reduce the likelihood of hospitalization and help you achieve your best health.
Care coordination is useful for any patient but it can be especially helpful to those with chronic or complex health conditions like diabetes, obesity, COPD, depression, cancer or even one-time issues that require surgery and/or hospitalization.
