Patients covered by Anthem retain in-network access to high-quality, local care in central Ohio
Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield in Ohio and OhioHealth announced they have reached agreement on a new network participation contract. The multi-year agreement continues uninterrupted access to care at OhioHealth hospitals, facilities, and physician practices for Anthem members in all health plans, including employer-sponsored, individual, Medicare Advantage, and Medicaid health plan networks.
“We’re glad to continue our long-standing relationship with OhioHealth and to build on our efforts to advance value-based care that aligns payment to quality, not just quantity,” said Jane Peterson, president of Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield in Ohio. “It’s about making sure people get the right care at the right time — care that leads to better health outcomes, more support for individuals’ whole health, and ultimately lower costs for individuals, families, and employers across central Ohio.”
“We’re happy to have reached a new contract with Anthem, which ensures our patients can continue to receive the high-quality care they need without interruption or uncertainty,” said Carrie Harris-Muller, senior vice president and chief population health officer of OhioHealth. “Our priority is, and will always be, improving the health of those we serve.”
