The state’s largest insurer and one of the region’s largest health care providers say a deal is imminent ahead of an April 1 deadline.
The negotiations come as patients across Texas received notification that in-network coverage between the state’s largest health insurance provider and one of the region’s largest hospital chains might come to an end on April 1. Despite the warnings, the two sides said they expect a deal so patients don’t lose access to doctors or are at risk for out-of-network fees.
“This new contract will reflect our mutual commitment to quality, affordable health care,” said Jim Springfield, BCBSTX president. “As a customer-owned health insurance industry leader in Texas for more than 90 years, we must protect our members’ access to care at fair rates.” On Wednesday, a Medical City spokesperson said the provider continued to have “very productive” discussions with BCBSTX.
