Live your life without knee or hip pain

 

If you experience hip or knee pain, everyday activities can be challenging, and discomfort can even keep you up at night.

When other treatment options don't provide relief, it may be time for surgery. As part of the Anthem HealthSync plan, you have access to a HealthSync Designated Orthopedic Network of facilities specifically developed for hip and knee replacements (for your primary procedure and/or revision surgery). This special HealthSync Designated Network ensures you can receive high quality care, and competitive costs.
 
Starting January 1, 2026, Anthem HealthSync plan members will be directed to HealthSync Designated Network facilities for hip and knee procedures, where they can benefit from coordinated care, advanced resources, and trusted specialists.
 
Should you need a hip or knee replacement and/or revision, your care will be directed to one of our HealthSync Designated Orthopedic Network facilities to ensure the best outcomes. Members living over 100 miles away from a HealthSync Designated Network Facility are exempt and will not be required to utilize the HealthSync Designated Orthopedic Network. They may choose to see an in-network HealthSync provider.

What does it cost?
Eligible hip and knee surgeries and/or revisions at one of these HealthSync Designated Orthopedic Network facilities will be covered under your benefit plan, with normal cost-sharing (such as deductibles or coinsurance) applying. To receive these benefits, procedures must be performed at one of the HealthSync Designated Orthopedic Network facilities. Services received at a facility outside of the HealthSync Designated Orthopedic Network are not eligible for coverage under any benefit tier; however, you may request an exception through the appeal process, and individual circumstances will be reviewed.²
