Memorial Health System Signs Multi-Year Contract with Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield
A multi-year contract renewal has been approved and signed by both Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield in Ohio and Memorial Health System. This contract extends through September of 2025, ensuring Anthem’s members in the Mid-Ohio Valley will retain in-network health plan benefits with the reginal health system for years to come.
