Boston Medical Center Health System (BMCHS) is a ~$6 billion integrated academic health care system whose purpose is to transform the outcomes of low(er) income and vulnerable populations in Massachusetts, New Hampshire and beyond. Anchored by Boston Medical Center, BMCHS has evolved to encompass six major entities: Boston Medical Center, WellSense Health Plan, Boston University Medical Group, Boston HealthNet (a network of community health centers), Boston Accountable Care Organization, and Clearway Health (a specialty pharmacy services provider).

BMC Health System occupies a unique position in the MA and US healthcare landscape. Over 60% of clinical care is in (near) full risk arrangements, and there is a strong commitment to value based care, and to addressing the core health drivers (social determinants of health) in the communities that BMCHS serves. BMCHS’s patients disproportionately come from communities of color, so BMCHS is deeply invested in addressing health inequities both within the organization, and in partnership with community organizations. Through WellSense Health Plan, BMCHS covers over 40% of all Massachusetts’ Medicaid members in exclusive payer-provider partnerships with eight accountable care organizations. Lastly, BMCHS’s academic enterprise provides a strong foundation of talent to study and disseminate its experience and to shape the health system more broadly.
