Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Our commitment

At AmeriHealth Caritas, we believe a diverse company is a strong company. Through our culture of inclusion, we are able to effectively serve our members, support diverse suppliers, and engage our employees.

We're proud to be a part of the CEO Action for Diversity and Inclusion™ program. With our pledge to promote diversity through education and community engagement, we are cultivating a more inclusive workplace while putting diverse partnerships first.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are woven into the fabric of our organization, and not just because it's the right thing to do — it's also good business. Research shows that companies with ethnic, cultural, or gender diversity on executive teams are more likely to be profitable than those without it.

By embracing different cultures, genders, ages, and abilities, we not only make ourselves stronger — we can more effectively build healthy communities across the country.

Employee Diversity

At AmeriHealth Caritas, our commitment to diversity starts with the employees we hire, and the internal culture of respect and inclusion we foster.

With thousands of employees across the nation and a multicultural workforce, we make it a priority to represent and reflect the communities we live and work in, and the members we serve.
Recruiting We are an equal opportunity employer, and do not discriminate on the basis of age, race, ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or disability.
Training We offer a variety of training on topics such as cultural competence, health equity, and unconscious bias.
Associate Resource Groups Open to all employees, our associate resource groups (ARGs) offer additional opportunities for engagement, community service, and professional development. We currently have an active and expanding range of ARGs that engage on topics such as disabilities and caregiving, veterans, and gender, race, and ethnicity.
Professional Development Through programs like the Urban Leadership Forum (ULF), employees who are emerging leaders can build relationships, get support and inspiration to reach their goals, and make positive impacts on their communities.
Summer Internships

Our student internship program supports our role as national leaders in caring for the underserved and chronically ill populations.

AmeriHealth Caritas offers internships across business units at sites throughout the country, but most positions are at our corporate headquarters in the Philadelphia region. We may have roles available in health care administration, public health, business, information technology, marketing, communications, and more.

Community Engagement We reach out to the communities that need us. From innovative programs like Bright Start®, Healthy Hoops, Health Empowerment Tour, and Health Empowerment Tour Jr,. we put in the creativity and long-term commitment needed to educate, inspire healthy lifestyles, and bring breakthrough wellness programs directly to those we serve.
