Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

At AmeriHealth Caritas, we embed diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) into everything we do. 

Within our walls, we integrate DEI into our business practices, creating equitable policies and fostering an inclusive culture where diverse ideas and experiences are welcomed and respected.

Beyond our walls, we support our members through DEI programs and partnerships that create economic stability and lead to a high quality of care. Working with providers, community partners, and strategic partners, we expand our reach, amplify our message, and advocate for equity and justice.

What is DEI?

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are distinct and mutually reinforcing values. Combined into a holistic program, DEI creates innovative and resilient companies with high-performing cultures of belonging.

• Diversity is all the characteristics that make us who we are.
• Equity is what we invest in our people to ensure all groups get what they need to grow, contribute, and develop.
• Inclusion is how we create an environment where the diverse perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences that each person brings are embraced, respected, and celebrated.

DEI is woven into the fabric of our organization, and not just because it's the right thing to do — it's also good business. Embracing different cultures, genders, ages, and abilities makes our company stronger and our work for our members and their communities more effective.

Our DEI strategy

AmeriHealth Caritas’ DEI strategy rests on five pillars. Pillars one and two contribute directly to the employee experience within our walls. Pillars three, four, and five demonstrate our commitment to our members and the communities we serve beyond our walls.
