BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Commonwealth Care Alliance (CCA), a mission-driven healthcare services organization that offers best in class health plans and care delivery programs designed for individuals with the most significant needs, announced that it has expanded its provider agreement with Beth Israel Lahey Health (BILH). This expansion will improve access to care for CCA Senior Care Options (SCO) and One Care members in roughly 20 towns and cities across Eastern Massachusetts, ranging from Newburyport to Plymouth. The arrangement includes over seven thousand practitioners across 13 hospitals, five community health centers, three urgent care centers, and BILH’s network of primary care locations.
