CareSouth Carolina welcomes new Value-Based Care Nurse Practitioner

CareSouth Carolina welcomes Shankana Johnson, NP, as the newest provider assisting with the Value Based Care Team.

Johnson has more than 10 years of experience in nursing leadership experience and received her Master of Science in Nursing (Family Nurse Practitioner) at Walden University and her Bachelor of Science in Nursing at the USC Upstate Mary Black School of Nursing.

The value-based care team works with insurance contracts, studies quality care metrics & MLR (Medical Loss Ratio), works to ensure patients are efficiently navigating the system, partners with groups inside of CareSouth Carolina for effective telemedicine and telecommunication treatment, as well as many other duties.

 “CareSouth Carolina is very family-oriented,” Johnson said. “I’m looking forward to being able to provide access to care for those who might not be able to receive it otherwise. I love helping people and meeting new people, so this role is perfect for me.”

Outside of work, Johnson enjoys spending time with her family, traveling, and shopping.
