Meeting people where they are can mean traveling in different environments — on crowded highway overpasses, unpaved backroads or, in the case of Dr. Georgia Braimakis, traveling on foot amid the hustle and bustle of New York City. "I walk seven miles per day,” said Dr. Braimakis, a full-time physician who sees health plan members primarily in Manhattan. “I don't use cars. I use public transportation, and I walk to all the appointments. I get fresh air, light and exercise...I feel better now than three years ago when I started." After years of working in hospitals and private clinics, she was drawn to Signify Health by a "different paradigm" — the opportunity to meet members in the privacy and comfort of their own homes.
As every Medicare Advantage (MA) health plan knows: quality performance is more than a metric, it is a key driver of member outcomes, engagement and revenue. Medicare Advantage Star Ratings, which evaluate plans across categories such as staying healthy, managing chronic conditions, member satisfaction, complaints and customer service directly influence annual bonuses, enrollment growth and impacting health outcomes. Even modest improvements in these ratings can translate into meaningful operational and financial impact. Signify Health’s in-home visits provide a practical, data-driven approach to helping plans close quality gaps, improve member engagement and support improved clinical outcomes.

She found that path with Signify Health, where she works part-time as a clinician, all while maintaining her full-time role as a professor in patient health education and health promotion.
