Mount Sinai Furthers Its Contessa Partnership To Create Full-Continuum Home-Based Care Agency

Contessa – the higher-acuity care provider and subsidiary of Amedisys Inc. (Nasdaq: AMED) – has extended its partnership with Mount Sinai Health System. Under the extension, Mount Sinai South Nassau’s home health agency will now become a part of the two organizations’ existing joint venture. The JV now includes home health, hospital-at-home, SNF-level care at home and palliative care.

What has now been created is the home health agency “Mount Sinai at Home,” a home-based care agency with capabilities across the continuum of care.
