(NASDAQ: CLOV) (“Clover,” “Clover Health” or the “Company”), a physician enablement company committed to improving health equity for seniors, today announced the appointment of Anna Loengard, M.D. to the Company’s Board of Directors.
Dr. Loengard is a highly accomplished physician executive with significant experience in both geriatric medicine and value based care models.

“What attracted me to Clover was the company’s commitment to providing holistic, quality, and personalized healthcare to every one of its members based on their individual needs, including those who require more complex and even end-of-life care,” said Dr. Loengard. “Traditional home care models are notoriously difficult to scale, but Clover’s approach of having PCPs identify the patients they believe would benefit from the program, and leveraging groundbreaking clinical technology to manage their care, has the potential to create real positive change.”
“Our vision is to create a new standard for distributed care, starting with personalized in-home primary care,” said Andrew Toy, President of Clover Health. “Dr. Loengard’s experience leading clinical and quality programs aimed at empowering medically complex patients, while supporting the physicians who care for them, paired with her passion for improving value in our healthcare system, will be incredibly valuable as we continue to evolve Clover Home Care to meet our in-need members where they are, in a holistic way, to improve their health outcomes and help keep them out of the hospital.”
