Alivi Health Unveils Growth Plans That Will Add Hundreds of Florida Jobs

Miami Healthcare Company's Services For Medicare And Medicaid Health Plans Will Double Revenue

MIAMI, Dec. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Alivi Health, a healthcare benefits company, announced it will more than double in size thanks to two new landmark contracts with a Florida Medicaid health plan and a Florida Medicare Advantage plan. Alivi serves health plan members who are elderly, frail, living at a level of poverty, or disabled. Alivi anticipates hiring approximately 250 employees throughout Florida, with the greatest concentration in South Florida. The new, competitive-wage jobs include executive positions, mid-level management roles, and hundreds of care coordinators who will work at the company's Miami headquarters and remotely. A Colorado-based company previously held the contracts that Alivi has contracted and serviced them with employees outside of Florida.

Non-emergency transportation services – ranging from rides to doctors' appointments to life-saving trips for chemotherapy or dialysis – are often covered by Medicaid and Medicare benefits, and Alivi coordinates these non-emergency transportation services.

This is a watershed moment in our company's history, and it's also a tremendous opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of millions of Floridians.

"No doubt, this is a watershed moment in our company's history, and it's also a tremendous opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of millions of Floridians," said Magdiel Rodriguez, CEO of Alivi. "If you have one lever to pull to improve health outcomes, it is transportation. Transportation barriers lead to rescheduled or missed appointments, delayed care, and missed doses of medicine. These obstacles can be particularly detrimental to people with chronic diseases and can lead to worse health outcomes."

Unlike many other companies that manage non-emergency medical transportation, Alivi considers itself a healthcare company and delivers its transportation services mindful of the specific healthcare needs of the patient populations it serves.

"Our recent growth has been fueled by the healthcare industry's increasing focus on delivering quality versus volume, and in that context, we have demonstrated our clinically integrated approach to transportation helps people get the care they need at the right time," said Caleb Rojas, President of Alivi. "We understand the medical nature of each trip and treat it accordingly. As a result, we contribute to our health plan clients' ability to deliver better health outcomes while improving member's experience. We mainly serve the most vulnerable, frail, and at-risk populations, and without our services, they will not be able to receive the medical attention they need and deserve."

According to the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, transportation barriers disproportionately affect low-income individuals and families, and the inability to access transportation can be detrimental to long-term health. As a testament to the problem, five percent of all U.S. adults and eight percent of Black U.S. adults reported forgoing healthcare due to transportation barriers. Among those who rely on publicly funded health insurance, twelve percent were more likely to forgo needed care due to difficulty finding transportation.*
