Today, Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield (Anthem) and Hartford HealthCare (HHC) announced that they have reached an innovative new agreement marking a significant shift toward value-driven healthcare programs and plans.
As part of the agreement, the two organizations commit to a strong collaborative relationship focused on driving lower costs and utilization through an enhanced focus on primary and preventative care. The new agreement also features a plan for community health outreach to secure access to coverage for those in need through existing programs such as Covered Connecticut or Access Health CT, the state’s health insurance exchange.
