Elevance Health completes acquisition of Paragon Healthcare

Today, Elevance Health, the parent company of our pharmacy benefit management partner, CarelonRx, completed its acquisition of Paragon Healthcare, Inc., a company specializing in life-saving and life-giving infusible and injectable therapies.

Paragon Healthcare provides infusion services to patients through its omnichannel model of ambulatory infusion centers, home infusion pharmacies, and other specialty pharmacy services. The company, headquartered in Plano, Texas, currently serves more than 35,000 patients at over 40 ambulatory infusion centers across eight states, as well as patients’ homes.

The acquisition of Paragon Healthcare will deepen Anthem’s capabilities around providing affordable, convenient access to specialty medications for those living with chronic and complex illnesses. Paragon Healthcare will now operate as part of CarelonRx.

CarelonRx plans to expand Paragon Healthcare’s geographical footprint and operations while bolstering its therapeutic coverage to ensure Anthem members receive convenient, timely access to medications.
