Carelon, the healthcare services subsidiary of Elevance Health, opened a new healthcare facility in Fayetteville April 5 with a ribbon cutting ceremony.

The integrated healthcare center — the first of its kind for the company — will offer advanced primary care services, behavioral health services and non-clinical employee assistance program counseling under one roof.

The Carelon care center is staffed by a multidisciplinary team of primary care and behavioral health clinicians.

“Our first physical Carelon care center location offers a new choice for complete care for military, Medicare and Medicaid patients in and around the Fayetteville area,” said Pete Haytaian, Executive Vice President, Elevance Health and President, Carelon.

“By offering both physical and behavioral health support in one location, we can provide easier and more comprehensive access to care that meets the unique needs of our patients,” Haytaian said.

The center will accept scheduled appointments, same-day appointments and walk-ins for most primary care services. The center will also offer support for complex, chronic health conditions, wellness coaching and education, and clinical behavioral services, with both in-clinic and virtual options.

Patients must have insurance plans with TRICARE, BlueCross BlueShield of North Carolina (Medicare), Healthy Blue (Medicaid patients 14 years old and up), or Original Medicare.

The facility is located at 1590 Skibo Road and is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. To make an appointment, patients can call 910-717-0676 or visit www.carelon.com/health-clinics.
