CareSource is a national nonprofit managed care organization founded in 1989 and headquartered in Dayton, Ohio. The organisation serves more than 2 million members through Medicaid, Medicare, and Marketplace health insurance products. It operates as an integrated care delivery platform, partnering with providers and community organisations to coordinate services and improve access to high-quality care.
The organisation's core function centres on population health management and addressing social determinants of health alongside traditional insurance administration. CareSource structures its work around multidisciplinary teams that collaborate across diverse plans and states to design benefits programmes, share knowledge, and continuously improve outcomes. This team-based approach extends to care coordination, quality improvement initiatives, and the development of preventive and wellness programmes that support affordability for members.
Beyond its insurance operations, CareSource operates the CareSource Foundation as a vehicle for community investment and long-term impact work. The organisation emphasises accountability and member-first decision-making across its operations, positioning clinical and administrative functions as complementary components of its broader mission to improve health outcomes for the populations it serves.
