MealAdvisor pilot supporting the health of our Medicaid members

Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield (Anthem) is taking a proactive approach to disease management and prevention by launching MealAdvisor to help members manage a healthy weight through food and nutritional support.

This year long pilot uses an app to monitor behaviors, provide customized recipes, and assist members in weekly meal planning. We believe helping members identify where they can make small changes can result in improvements to their health and create big end-to-end results over time.
