Note 1: Organization
P3 Health Partners Inc. (“P3”) is a patient-centered and physician-led population health management company and, for accounting purposes, the successor to P3 Health Group Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries (collectively, “P3 LLC,” and together with P3, the “Company”) after the consummation of a series of business combinations in December 2021 with Foresight Acquisition Corp. (the “Business Combinations”). As the sole manager of P3 LLC, P3 operates and controls all of the business and affairs of P3 LLC and P3’s only assets are equity interests in P3 LLC.
P3 LLC was founded on April 12, 2017 and began commercial operations on April 20, 2017 to provide population health management services on an at-risk basis to insurance plans offering medical coverage to Medicare beneficiaries under Medicare Advantage programs. Medicare Advantage (“MA”) programs are insurance products created solely for Medicare beneficiaries. Insurance plans contract directly with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) to offer Medicare beneficiaries benefits that replace traditional Medicare fee-for-service (“FFS”) coverage.
The Company’s contracts with health plans are based on an at-risk shared savings model. Under this model, the Company is financially responsible for the cost of all contractually-covered services provided to members assigned to the Company by health plans in exchange for a fixed monthly “capitation” payment, which is generally a percentage of the payment health plans receive from CMS. Under this arrangement, Medicare beneficiaries generally receive all their healthcare coverage through the Company’s network of employed and affiliated physicians and specialists.
The services provided to health plans’ members vary by contract. These may include utilization management, care management, disease education, and maintenance of a quality improvement and quality management program for members assigned to the Company. The Company is also responsible for the credentialing of its providers, processing and payment of claims, and the establishment of a provider network for certain health plans.
In addition to the Company’s contracts with health plans, the Company provides primary healthcare services through its employed physician clinic locations. These primary care clinics are reimbursed for services provided under FFS contracts with various payers and through capitated – per member, per month (“PMPM”) arrangements.
