Founded in 1977 as the Senior Care Action Network, SCAN began with a simple but
radical idea: that older adults deserve to stay healthy and independent. That
belief was championed by a group of community activists we still honor today as
the “12 Angry Seniors.” Their mission continues to guide everything we do.
Today, SCAN is a nonprofit health organization serving more than 500,000 people
across Arizona, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, and Washington, with over
$8 billion in annual revenue. With nearly five decades of experience, we have
built a distinctive, values-driven platform dedicated to improving care for
older adults.
Our work spans Medicare Advantage, fully integrated care models, primary care,
care for the most medically and socially complex populations, and
next-generation care delivery models. Across all of this, we are united by a
shared commitment: combining compassion with discipline, innovation with
stewardship, and growth with integrity.
At SCAN, we believe scale should strengthen—not dilute—our mission. We are
building the future of care for older adults, grounded in purpose,
accountability, and respect for the people and communities we serve.
