WHY:
JenCare has been helping Virginia seniors enjoy more healthy days since 2011. By honoring seniors with affordable VIP care that delivers better health, JenCare enjoys substantial organic growth from happy patients referring in family members and friends as new patients. Rapid membership growth in Portsmouth is precisely why JenCare has moved into the freshly renovated 14,456 sq. ft. center with 30 clinical rooms + 65 parking spaces + large multi-use rooms for relevant community activities year-round.

HOW:
For seniors most in need of care, high-quality health care is too often beyond reach. ChenMed and JenCare were founded to bring concierge-style medicine – and better health outcomes – to the neediest populations. ChenMed (JenCare) physicians specialize in serving seniors with low-to-moderate incomes, most managing multiple chronic conditions.

A value-based care pioneer, ChenMed primary care physicians in six states invest an average of 189 minutes of face-to-face time with patients yearly. That’s nine times more than the national average of just 21 minutes yearly provided by family and general physicians (National Ambulatory Care Study).

Dramatically more PCP attention is why JenCare and other ChenMed medical practices consistently outperform CMS reported county-wide quality measures for seniors, including: 34% fewer emergency room visits; 28% fewer in-patient hospital admissions; and 26% fewer in-patient hospital days.
