(NYSE: AGL), the trusted partner empowering physicians to transform health care in our communities, today released its inaugural Total Care, Healthier Communities Impact Report highlighting the company’s Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance for 2021. The impact report reflects agilon health’s vision and commitment with its physician partners to transforming health care in 100+ communities through value-based primary care.

"Every day we are pursuing our mission to be the trusted, long-term partner of community-based physicians, enabling them to reimagine the patient experience for older adults and lead the transformation of care delivery in their communities,” said Steve Sell, Chief Executive Officer. “We are pleased to share our ESG strategy and inaugural report which articulates our commitment to building a new primary care model with our physician partners in a sustainable and responsible manner.”

Aligned to agilon’s impact pillars and based on a strong governance foundation, the comprehensive report provides an enterprise-wide analysis of the company’s ESG actions, programs, and investments. It also highlights the important role of key stakeholders including primary care physicians, patients, communities, and employees in delivering high-quality primary care within a full-risk, capitation model.
