Northern Light and Anthem bring lower-cost options to southern Maine
Northern Light Health and Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield in Maine are partnering to provide greater access to affordable care in southern Maine.
On July 1, 2022, Northern Light Inland Hospital in Waterville and Northern Light Mercy Hospital in Portland will become Tier 1 providers in our Maine HMO Tiered Options Plans, which ensure quality and affordability. Maine HMO Tiered Options Plans are available to members in Individual, Small Group, and Large Group plans.
Our Maine HMO Tiered Options Plans offer Anthem members access to healthcare professionals and hospitals with lower-cost options and incentives. Members could see significant savings in cost shares for healthcare services by selecting a healthcare professional or hospital in Tier 1. Savings such as lower copays for primary care physician and specialist office visits, lower coinsurance costs, and up to $3,000 in savings on deductibles, depending on the plan.
With the addition of Northern Light Inland Hospital and Northern Light Mercy Hospital, all 10 of Northern Light Health’s hospitals as well as its healthcare professionals will be included in the top tier for Anthem’s Maine HMO Tiered Options Plans.
