Medical and Pharmacy Plan Change: June 1, 2021

As a result of the closure and sale of Mercy Hospital and Medical Center (Mercy), we are no longer able to continue the health plan options currently offered through Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois (BCBSIL). To ensure continuity of health plan coverage, we have taken steps to secure a new health plan to replace the current Advantage HMO, HMO Illinois and PPO Plans. Below are links and resources to help you understand the impact of this change for you and your family members.
