FORT WAYNE, Ind. -- Indiana and Parkview Health announced a network participation agreement with Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield that ensures Parkview remains a provider in Anthem's care networks. 

This agreement secures Parkview's participation in Anthem’s employer-sponsored, individual, and Medicaid health plan networks through 2029.

While discussions continue for Medicare Advantage plans, Parkview will remain part of Anthem’s Medicare Advantage network through
Dec. 31.

“Our agreement ensures our patients continue to receive the care they need without interruption, which was always our top priority,” said Dr. Jason Row, chief value transformation officer, Parkview Health.

“Parkview remains committed to negotiating in good faith with insurers like Anthem to reduce the cost of care for patients. In fact, Anthem will pay Parkview less for hospital care through 2029 than it did in 2020.”

In accordance with confidentiality requirements, the terms of the agreement will not be disclosed.
