Empire to retire Blue Precision program on December 31, 2021

Beginning January 1, 2024, Empire became Anthem. This article, published under the former brand, now applies to Anthem.

For more than a decade, Blue Precision – Empire BlueCross BlueShield’s (“Empire”) physician transparency program – has recognized specialists for meeting or exceeding established quality and cost effectiveness measures.  Thank you to all those physicians participating in our networks and for the care you provide to our members. 

 

As we announced in the July 2021 edition of Provider News, Empire has made the business decision to retire our Blue Precision program effective December 31, 2021.  Blue Precision recognition icons and other program information will be removed from empireblue.com> and our “Find Care” provider tool by January 1, 2022.

 

Going forward, Empire will continue to focus and expand our consumer tools and content to assist members in making more informed and personalized healthcare decisions.  We look forward to working collaboratively with you in other physician programs to provide our members with continued access to affordable and quality healthcare.
