Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield

Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield is a consolidation of two Indiana-based mutual insurance companies (Blue Cross of Indiana formed in 1944; Blue Shield of Indiana formed in 1946). Through a steady series of mergers and acquisitions, Anthem began its expansion program across multiple states.

Today, Anthem is comprised of the Midwest, East, West, and Southeast regions. As an established and forward-thinking licensee of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, Anthem successfully serves each of its participants through building physician and patient partnerships.

Anthem is at the forefront of customer care with PPOs (Preferred Provider Organization) and traditional health insurance plans. It also boasts a regional focus within the following states: Colorado, Connecticut, Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Nevada, New Hampshire, Ohio, and Virginia. These are referred to as "Anthem" states and members are offered additional policy choices. Each of these is designed to meet a range of budgets: Blue Access Economy, Blue Access Saver, Blue Preferred Primary, Blue Short Term, and the Medicare-approved Anthem Senior Advantage, prescription, and supplemental plans.

Standard benefits include reduced co-payments within the provider network and, at varying levels, members may access outside providers at a somewhat higher fee. Many plans allow access to specialists without physician referral. Members also have access to physician and hospital care outside of the Anthem regions, including international networks.

In addition to the above, Anthem provides:

  • Dental and life insurance
  • Drug management plans
  • Programs that offer assistance with chronic health issues and disabilities.

Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield also focuses on wellness programs and works closely with regional specialists in weight loss and employer-based incentives.

The Anthem network maintains a reputation for the quality of its provider and support network, promising easy access to trusted physician resources and a reminder program for annual and preventive exams. The newest technology is incorporated to make claims processing fast and easy to track. Services are available to corporations, small business owners, and individuals or families. Not all plans will be administered from state to state. Benefits and application qualifications may vary.
