Elevance Health (ELV) Brand Inks Deal to Better Serve Georgia

Elevance Health Inc.’s ELV brand, Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, recently entered into a multi-year deal with the Georgia-based integrated healthcare system, Piedmont. The agreement, effective from the very beginning of April 2024, serves as a sign of the continued collaboration between the ELV brand and Piedmont.

This, in turn, is expected to equip the partners in continuing to offer high quality care services to the mutually served 400,000-plus members residing across metro Atlanta, Athens, Augusta, Columbus, Macon and Rome regions of Georgia.

The benefits of the contract extension can be reaped by Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield members who are enrolled in employer-based, Health Insurance Exchange and Medicare Advantage plans. The pursuit of a continued collaborative approach renders the targeted members an opportunity to avail cost-effective and enhanced access to quality care at the extensive provider network of Piedmont. Therefore, better health outcomes remain an inevitable result for Georgians.
