Founded in 1985, WellCare Health Plans, Inc. grew to become a prominent provider of government-sponsored managed care services, focusing on Medicaid and Medicare Advantage plans for families, children, seniors, and individuals with complex medical needs. The company's mission was to provide quality, affordable healthcare to its members. In January 2020, WellCare was acquired by Centene Corporation in a major industry merger. Following the acquisition, WellCare's operations and plans have been integrated into Centene's business portfolio. The brand name has been retained and rebranded as "Wellcare" (lowercase 'c') to serve as the single brand for Centene's Medicare products nationwide.
