Who We Are
-----------------
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Vermont has been a primary part of Vermont’s health care system for more than 30 years, providing thousands of Vermonters with health benefits and services. Indeed, we are an independent, local, not-for-profit Vermont company, governed and managed locally, and our sole focus is Vermont. For more than a generation we have been the only comp

any to offer coverage to all Vermonters, regardless of their age or medical status, or whether they purchase through employer-based health insurance plans, as individuals, or obtain coverage to supplement their federal Medicare benefits. Our affiliation with the national Blue Cross and Blue Shield system provides our members with the security of seamless, discounted health care services when they travel across the country or abroad, but we exist solely to serve Vermonters. We believe our single-state focus allows our about-340 employees to bring highly personalized service to our customers and members. It also enables us to work closely with our state’s communities and health care providers to manage costs and improve the quality of health care, and to adapt our organization to meet Vermont’s changing needs. Our company is centrally located in the state, headquartered on a scenic hillside in the central Vermont community of Berlin.

Affordability Matters brings five Vermont organizations together around one question Vermonters ask constantly: what will this cost before I walk in the door? Karin McCaffrey of Vermont OPEN Imaging sat down with us to talk about written estimates and up-front pricing. Wherever you go for care, you can ask what it costs first.

That’s why we have joined other Vermont organizations to spur more conversation on cost transparency.

Late summer calendars fill up fast. If you have been meaning to schedule a routine visit, screening, or back-to-school appointment, this is a good week to make the call.

A little time on the calendar now can make August less crowded.

When you’re sick or injured, Blue Cross VT is here to provide support for you to get better. We also want to help you stay healthy, so our health plans provide coverage for preventive care services, such as screenings and vaccinations.
