Transforming Healthcare

Good healthcare is about so more than treating people when they are sick—it empowers people to stay well. That is why we strive to meet people where they are in their health journeys and in their communities. We deliver the resources and care they need when they need it.

We address health challenges people face through advocacy and innovation. We build partnerships and invest in solutions that improve access to care, support good physical, mental and financial health, reduce overall healthcare costs and advance health equity.

As one of the nation's largest a not-for-profit healthcare organizations serving more than 3.5 million members, we are uniquely positioned to bring long-awaited change to the healthcare industry and to make a meaningful difference in the communities we serve. And so, we will.
