NEW YORK, NY & DUBLIN, OH (August 12, 2025) — Pearl Health, a leading provider of physician ACO enablement technology and services, and Management Network Services (MNS), a national leader in managed care enablement for skilled nursing facilities (SNFs), today announced a strategic partnership to expand SNF participation in value-based Medicare programs and improve outcomes for post-acute patients.
With a national footprint and decades of experience, MNS supports nearly 5,000 skilled nursing facilities through a next-generation, proprietary SNF operations platform for credentialing, contracting, care coordination, claims, and managed care efficiencies. Pearl Health’s technology and services enable providers to succeed in value-based models by identifying at-risk patients, simplifying workflows, and aligning incentives around quality and cost. Together, MNS and Pearl are making it easier for SNFs to enter risk-bearing arrangements and get rewarded for delivering high-quality care.
We are excited to deepen our partnership with MNS to further evolve our value-based care arrangement for skilled nursing facilities.
“We are excited to deepen our partnership with MNS to further evolve our value-based care arrangement for skilled nursing facilities,” said Michael Monsegur, Vice President of Preferred Networks at Pearl Health. “By marrying real-time clinical support with innovative reimbursement design, we’re making it easy for SNFs to deliver better patient care and outcomes—and get rewarded for doing so.”
Through this partnership, SNFs will gain access to aligned reimbursement models, virtual oversight to reduce avoidable hospitalizations and improve care transitions, and a streamlined infrastructure for payer operations. This comprehensive support is designed to help facilities confidently participate in programs like ACO REACH—enhancing patient outcomes while strengthening financial sustainability.
We’re proud to partner with Pearl ACO to bring our end-to-end ACO solution to life—combining value-based reimbursement, virtual nursing oversight, and our proprietary SNF platform.
