Reid Health, Anthem achieve agreement; all Anthem plans remain in-network with Reid
March 14, 2024 -- Reid
Health has been working in good faith over the past six months to reach new
contracts that ensure patients carrying Anthem/Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) insurance
have continued access to Reid's high-quality healthcare.
We are pleased to
announce negotiations have positively concluded, and Reid Health remains
in-network with all Anthem/BCBS plans: commercial (employer-sponsored),
Medicare Advantage, Managed Medicaid, and worker's compensation.
Reid Health patients
who carry Anthem/BCBS insurance should keep all scheduled appointments and
schedule new appointments as needed.
"Through this
agreement, we see that Anthem and Reid Health are equally committed to investing
in excellent rural healthcare," said Craig Kinyon, Reid Health President/CEO. "Our first priority has always
been to ensure our patients have access to the care they need. We appreciate
the patience and support of our community and patients as we have worked
through this process."
