MECHANICSBURG, Pa. – PA Health & Wellness, a Pennsylvania-based managed care organization and a subsidiary of Centene Corporation (NYSE: CNC), has secured a top ranking in the National Committee for Quality Assurance’s (NCQA) 2025 Health Plan Ratings, placing among the top 14 Medicaid health plans nationwide. This achievement underscores the company’s dedication to delivering accessible, high-quality healthcare to Pennsylvanians, amid growing scrutiny of managed care efficacy and outcomes.
“This recognition from NCQA validates our commitment to our members’ well-being and the collaborative spirit of our providers and partners,” stated Interim CEO Marc Giordano of PA Health & Wellness. “We are focused on fostering healthier communities and helping our participants thrive.”
The NCQA’s rigorous evaluation process assesses health plans on three core pillars: clinical quality, member experience, and efforts to improve overall health outcomes. PA Health & Wellness’s ranking reflects its strategic investments in preventative care, chronic condition management, and innovative care delivery models. The company is leveraging data analytics to personalize care plans and improve patient engagement, a crucial factor in achieving better health outcomes.
PA Health & Wellness’s participation in the Community HealthChoices Program, which offers comprehensive long-term services and assistance, further solidified this performance.

Furthermore, the company proactively partners with local providers, community organizations, and stakeholders to strengthen healthcare delivery and address social determinants of health.
“Healthcare extends beyond traditional clinical settings,” Giordano emphasized. “This ranking epitomizes our dedication to innovation, empathy, and superior standards of care for Pennsylvanians.”
