BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee is winding down operations of our Shared Health subsidiary, which sells plans in other states to people dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid. This was a tough decision because it will affect around 150 talented, dedicated employees who support Shared Health – but we no longer see a sustainable path forward for this line of business. These changes will take effect in phases between September 2025 and early 2026.
Shared Health has roughly 5,500 members in Mississippi and Texas, and we will continue to support those members through the end of their coverage terms. This decision does not affect health coverage for members with a BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee plan.
