Making the Health Care System Work Better, Together

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas (BCBSTX) is working every day to identify ways to streamline, simplify and improve processes that may affect your practice. That work includes examining how we can work together to favorably impact care, quality and affordability. To that end, we are designing new data and reporting capabilities that may help you gain deeper and broader insights into the health care needs of BCBSTX members.

Throughout this year and next, BCBSTX will introduce new tools and technologies that we expect will help:

• Make it easier for you to do business with us
• Deliver actionable data to help you make more insightful patient treatment and practice management decisions
• Enhance the value and quality of care our members receive

Modernization is essential. By offering more efficient online options, increased network participation opportunities and risk models, and greater access to improved data and reporting tools, BCBSTX is aiming to go above and beyond where we are today, so that we may continue to work with you in more innovative ways.

We invite you to join us in helping make the healthcare system work better, together. Keep reading future issues of this newsletter to find out what’s new.
