Focusing on the growing senior population of southern Arizona, the Humana company has announced it is building nine health care centers designed to offer services to that demographic. One of the largest health insurance companies in the country, and ranking 41 on the Fortune 500 list, Humana will open the new facilities under its CenterWell Senior Primary Care brand, with the first center already opened in the Phoenix suburb of Maryville. Other centers are slated for Groves, Sun City, Glendale, South Mountain, and Peoria, all slated to open between now and early 2023. In a press release the company said that three other locations are planned for Alhambra, Riverview, and Wildflower, with scheduled opening dates to be announced later. In a statement, Daryl Young, president of CenterWell, said, “Phoenix is one of the fastest-growing areas in the country, and a good portion of that growth is in the senior population.” Young added that with the company focusing on what he called “underserved communities,” CenterWell will bring a “new level of access to quality, coordinated care to seniors in this important market.” CenterWell has facilities up and running throughout the Sunbelt, from North Carolina to Nevada. Earlier this month, Humana announced that is rebranding its Kindred at Home health division as CenterWell facilities, adding 350 locations to the company’s footprint. By Garry Boulard
