Blue Cross of Idaho
Blue Cross of Idaho has been a pivotal force in Idaho's healthcare landscape since its inception in 1945 as Idaho Hospital Service, evolving into the robust entity it is today. Over the decades, we've continually expanded our offerings and adapted to meet the changing needs of our communities. From pioneering coverage expansions in physician services in the 1940s to launching innovative products like HMOBlue and True Blue in the 1990s, we've remained at the forefront of healthcare innovation in Idaho. In 1995, our transition to a mutual insurance company empowered policyholders and strengthened our commitment to providing accessible, quality healthcare. Today, as part of a member-owned, not-for-profit mutual insurance holding company since 2020, we continue to lead initiatives that enhance healthcare affordability and accessibility for all Idahoans.
At Blue Cross of Idaho, our mission extends beyond insurance. We're dedicated to improving the health of Idahoans through proactive community involvement and strategic partnerships. Our Healthcare Economics Department drives innovation in healthcare solutions, collaborating closely with providers to ensure our members receive superior care at sustainable costs. Whether through investments in primary care accessibility or initiatives like Blue Cross of Idaho Rx, our pharmacy benefit manager, we're committed to supporting the health and well-being of our members and the broader Idaho community. Join us in shaping the future of healthcare in Idaho and beyond, where quality, affordability, and accessibility are fundamental pillars of our mission.
